You purchase the new Tesla Roadster and decide to take it out for a spin on theNewmarket Race Track. After getting to a top speed of 410. km/hr, suddenly atree falls down on the road blocking your path. You slam on your brakes to avoidhitting the fallen tree and thus, come to a complete stop. You were at a distanceof 30.0 m away from the tree when you hit the brakes. Assuming that theRoadster does not skid, what is the minimum deceleration needed to avoidhitting the fallen tree?

A race car entering the curved part of the track at the Daytona 500 drops its speed from 85.0 m/s to 80.0 m/ s in 2.0 s. If the radius of the curved part of the track is 316.0 m, calculate the total acceleration of the race car at the beginning and ending of reduction of speed.
MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER A cab driver heads south with a steady speed of v, -20.0 m/s for t-3.00 min, then makes a right turn and travels at v₂ - 25.0 m/s for fy 2.20 min, and then drives northwest at v₂ - 30.0 m/s for ty-1.00 min. For this 6.20-min trip, calculate the following. Assume +x is in the eastward direction. (a) total vector displacement (Enter the magnitude in m and the direction in degrees south of west.) Im magnitude direction (b) average speed (in m/s) m/s south of west (c) average velocity (Enter the magnitude in m/s and the direction in degrees south of west.) magnitude: direction m/s south of west

Two children are playing on a 151-m-tall bridge. One child drops a rock (initial velocity zero) at t = 0. The other waits 1.1 s and then throws a rock downward with an initial speed Vo. If the two rocks hit the ground at the same time, what is vo? m/s

A jeepney and a train are moving together along parallel paths at 30.0 m/s, with the jeepney adjacent to the rear of the train. The jeepney driver sees the traffic light turn red, so he accelerates at -2.50 m/s2, and then let his jeepney come to rest. The jeepney is at rest for 50.0 s, and then accelerates at 2.50 m/s2 to go back to a speed of 30.0 m/s. Assuming that the speed of the train remained constant at 30.0 m/s, how far is the jeepney from the rear of the train when the jeepney reaches a speed of 30.0 m/s?
