In 1967, New Zealander Burt Munro set the world record for an Indian motorcycle, on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, with a maximum speed of 183.58 mi/h. The one‐way course was 5.00 mi long. Acceleration rates are often described by the time it takes to reach 60.0 mi/h from rest. If this time was 4.00 s, and Burt accelerated at this rate until he reached his maximum speed, a. how long did it take Burt to complete the course? b. Sketch position vs time, velocity vs. time, and acceleration vs. time graphs for the race.

12. Car B is traveling a distance d ahead of car A. Both cars are traveling at 60 t%s when the driver of B suddenly applies the brakes, causing his car to decelerate at 12 /32. It takes the driver of car A 0.75 s to react (this is the normal reaction time for drivers). When he applies his brakes, he decelerates at 151/,2. Determine the minimum distance d be tween the cars so as to avoid a collision. (Practice at Home) A B
