A motorist is traveling on a curved section of highway of radius 2500 ft at the speed of 60 miles per hour. The motorist suddenly applies the brakes, causing the automobile to slow down at a constant rate. Knowing that after 8 seconds the speed has been reduced to 45 miles per hour, 1. Determine the acceleration of the automobile immediately after the brakes have been applied. VA = 60 mi/h A 2500 ft

1.A spacecraft starts from rest, and makes a journey to a destination 258000 km from its starting point. It does so by accelerating at a constant rate of 11.65 m/s^2 up to the midpoint of the journey, and then decelerates at the same constant rate of 11.65 m/s^2 for the second half of the journey, ending at rest. How long did the entire journey take? 2 hr 37 min 1 hr 51 min 6 hr 9 min 3 hr 5 min 2.
