Car A is traveling at a location where the speed limit is 100 km/h. The police officer in car P observes this speed via radar. The driver of car A is traveling at VA = 133 km/h as it passes P, but over the next 5.9 seconds, the car uniformly decelerates to the speed limit of 100 km/h, and after that the speed limit is maintained. At the moment when A passes P, the police car begins to accelerate at the constant rate of 4.1 m/s² until a speed of 154 km/h is achieved, and that speed is then maintained. Determine the distance s required for the police officer to overtake car A.
Car A is traveling on a highway at a constant speed. Initial velocity A = 80 mi/h and is 380 ft from the entrance of an on-ramp when car B enters the acceleration lane at that point at a speedInitial speed B = 20.0 mi/h. Car B accelerates uniformly and enters the main traffic lane after traveling 290 ft in 3.3 s. It then continues to accelerate at the same rate until it reaches a speed of 80 mi/h, which it maintains. Determine the final distance between the two cars (in ft).
A soccer player kicks a rock horizontally off a 46.0-m-high cliff into a pool of water. If the player hears the sound of the splash 3.25 s later, what was the initial speed given to the rock? Assume the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s. m/s
Assume you are driving a car at a constant speed of 76 km/h. Suddenly you see a deer standing on the highway and you must put on the brakes. Your reaction time (time elapsed between the moment you see the deer and your foot hitting the brakes) is 0.118 s. The brakes provide an acceleration with a magnitude of 4 m/s2, and a direction opposite the initial velocity. How do you find the total distance traveled?

An unidentified flying object (UFO) is observed to travel a total distance of 42000 m, starting and ending at rest, over a duration of 2.07 s. Assuming the UFO accelerated at a constant rate to the midpoint of its journey and then decelerated at a constant rate the rest of the way, what was the magnitude of its acceleration? Express your answer in g s , where 1 g = 9.81 m/s^2. 39,207 g s 19,604 g s 3,997 g s 1,998 g s
