A bus initially at a bus stop accelerates continuously for a kilometer, taking a minute and a half. Upon closing in on the next stop, the driver then begins to hit the brakes until it reaches a full stop in 8 seconds. Find the total distance that the bus traveled and the velocity of the bus just before it begins decelerating.
A motorcycle is following a car that is traveling at constant speed on a straight highway. Initially, the car and the motorcycle are both traveling at the same speed of 23.0 m/s, and the distance between them is 55.0 m. After t₁ = 3.00 s, the motorcycle starts to accelerate at a rate of 7.00 m/s². The motorcycle catches up with the car at some time t2.

Wyle E. Coyote hears a constant “Beep! Beep!” from around the corner of a cliff. Thinking it might be the Road Runner, he scampers up to speed and runs towards the sound to the East. On coming around the corner, he sees that it is not the Road Runner, but a truck coming towards him towards the West. The speed of the truck is 25 m/s. The speed of the Coyote is 100 m/s. The Coyote hears a frequency of 5500 Hz. The temperature of the air is 300 K. The mass of the truck is 1500 kg. The mass of the Coyote is 90 kg. Assume the air is an ideal gas with γ = 1.40 and the air molecules have a mass of 4.8*10-26 kg. The Boltzmann constant is k = 1.38*10-23 J/K. a. What is the speed of sound in this air? b. What is the original frequency of the horn on the truck? c. Assuming a perfectly inelastic collision, what is the final speed and direction of the truck, Coyote conglomerate (ignore any friction with the road)?
1. Hendrix and Tacey were to compete in a race over a course 2km long. Tacey crawls straight and steadily at its maximum speed of 0.4m/s toward the finish line. Hendrix runs at its maximum speed of 10m/s towards the goal for 1.7km and then stops to tease Tacey. How close to the goal can Hendrix let Tacey approach before resuming the race, which Tacey wins in a photo finish? Assume that when moving, both contestants move steadily at their respective maximum speeds.
A distance of 60 meters separates two jetskis at Virginia Beach. Starting at rest, the jetskis accelerate at a constant rate of 0.2 m/s2 towards each other.Starting at a midpoint between the two jetskis, a porpoise is seen swimming from one jetski to the other at a constant speed of 16 m/s. The porpoise continues swimming back and forth between the jetskis until they crash together.a) What is the total distance the porpoise travelled? b) what is the speed of the jetskis when they crash together?

0179% I 10:29 docs.google.com/forms 92 the location of Q. Objects A and B both start from rest. They both accelerate at the same rate. However, object A accelerates for twice the time as object B. What is the distance traveled by object A comparedto that of object B? * four times as far twice as far the same distance three times as far An object starts from rest and undergoes uniform acceleration. During the first second it travels 2 m. How far will it travel during the third second?
A subway car leaves station A; it gains speed at the rate of 4 ft/s² for 6 s and then at the rate of 6 ft/s² until it has reached the speed of 48 ft/s. The car maintains the same speed until it approaches station B; brakes are then applied, giving the car a constant deceleration and bringing it to a stop in 6 s. The total running time from A to B is 40 s. Determine the distance between stations A and B.
Solve the following problem by using a reference frame attached to the motorist. A motorist drives along a straight road at a constant speed of 15.0 m/s. Just as she passes a parked motorcycle police officer, the officer starts to accelerate at 2.00 m/s^2 to overtake her. Assuming that the officer maintains this acceleration, a) determine the time interval required for the police officer to reach the motorist. Find b) the speed and c) the total displacement of the officer as he overtakes the motorist.
A motorcycle officer hidden at an intersection observes a car driven by an oblivious driver who ignores a stop sign and continues through the intersection at a constant speed. The police officer takes off in pursuit 2.0s after the car has passed the stop sign. She accelerates at 4.2 m/s^2 until her speed is 110 km/h until she catches the car. The car is 1.4 km from the intersection. a) How long did it take for the officer to catch the car? b) How fast was the car traveling?
Car A was traveling east at high speed when it collided at point O with car B , which was traveling north at 45 mi/h. Car C , which was traveling west at 60 mi/h, was 32 ft east and 10 ft north of point O at the time of the collision. Because the pavement was wet, the driver of car C could not prevent his car from sliding into the other two cars, and the three cars, stuck together, kept sliding until they hit the utility pole p. Knowing that the weights of cars A, B, and C are, respectively, 3000 lb, 2600 lb, and 2400 lb, and neglecting the forces exerted on the cars by the wet pavement, solve the problems indicated.Knowing that the coordinates of the utility pole are xp= 46 ft and yp = 59 ft, determine (a) the time elapsed from the first collision to the stop at P,(b) the speed of car A.
