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 sees and reacts very unwisely to the police car P. Car A is traveling at VA = 128 km/h as it passes P, but over the next 4.2 seconds, the car uniformly accelerates to 144 km/h, after which that speed is maintained. At the moment when A passes P, the police car begins to accelerate at the constant rate of 6.0 m/s² until a speed of 165 km/h is achieved, and that speed is then maintained. Determine the distances required for the police officer to overtake car A.

You are cruising at a constant speed of 100 km/hr on a highway with a speed limit of 60 km/hr. A police officer stationed in the area sees you and started his pursuit to catch you just as the time you pass his position. He immediately starts from rest and accelerates at a constant 2.5 m/s². (a) How long will the police officer be able to catch you? (b) How fast is he traveling when it catches you? (c) How far will the police officer have traveled when he catches you?

In the future, Alice gets on a super high speed space shuttle on Earth to visit her friend Bob on Mars. The distance between the two planets is reported to be 7 × 107 km at the time of her journey. The shuttle moves at a constant speed throughout the journey and the shuttle company advertises that it moves so fast that Y = 1.4. Ignore the effects of acceleration and the movement of the planets for this question. (a) What is the speed of the shuttle, in terms of c? (b) What is the distance of the journey, according to Alice? (c) What is the duration of the journey, according to Alice? (d) What is the duration of the journey, according to Bob? (e) While Alice is on her way, another shuttle that is traveling in the opposite direction back to Earth goes past her. Assuming the other shuttle moves at the same speed as the shuttle Alice is on relative to the planets, what speed does Alice measure for the Earth-bound shuttle?
You are sitting in your car at a red light when you see a zombie standing still 65m in front of your car. You both begin to accelerate towards each other. Your car accelerates at 1.8 m/s^2 and the zombie accelerates at 0.6 m/s^2. How long does it take for you to strike the zombie? Make sure to include a diagram of the physical situation, label known and unknown quantities with units, and coordinate system. Thanks!
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 sees and reacts very unwisely to the police car P. Car A is traveling at VA = 125 km/h as it passes P, but over the next 5.2 seconds, the car uniformly accelerates to 147 km/h, after which that speed 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 175 km/h is achieved, and that speed is then maintained. Determine the distances required for the police officer to overtake car A. Answer: s= i VA NIG P ! m
A dog sees a squirrel 7.4 m away. The dog runs towards the squirrel at 6.2 m/s. The squirrel was not paying attention and didn’t notice the dog until the dog was only 2.4 m away. If the tree is 11.47 m away from the squirrel (in the opposite direction of the dog), what is the minimum speed the squirrel will need to run at to get away(ie get to the tree at least at the same time as the dog)?
You’re trying to find your classroom in the labyrinth that is Gilman Hall, walking through the halls at an average pace of 1.4 m/s. You look up from your phone displaying the room number to see that a group of students is suddenly standing in the middle of the hallway 1.8 meters away! How much time (in seconds) do you have to react before you bump into them
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 - 120 km/h as it passes P, but over the next 5.7 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 5.2 m/s² until a speed of 156 km/h is achieved, and that speed is then maintained. Determine the distances required for the police officer to overtake car A 1 Answer: s= i 66.76 m
A runner with a good awareness of her pace runs along a path of unknown length at a speed of 0.1250.125 mi/min and then walks back to her starting point at a speed of 0.04500.0450 mi/min. She neglects to note her time for each part of her path but does measure the total round-trip time to be 50.050.0 min. How far did she run? (Do not include walking distance.)
