John and Jane are standing beside a straight road and start their stopwatches at the same time. Jane walks 400 steps down the road. A car travels down the road at a speed v = 27.80 m/s . John, whose stopwatch measures in seconds, reads a time of 24 s when front of the car passes him. Jane, whose stopwatch measures in tenths of seconds, reads a time of 35.2 s when the front of the car passes her. All quantities are given to the correct number of significant figures. What is the distance d between Jane and John to the correct number of significant figures? Recall that d = vt for constant velocity motion.

Your favorite car goes zero to 60.0 mph in 5.00 seconds. Assuming it accelerates uniformly, sketch a velocity versus time graph of the motion. To three significant figures, the car travels ________ miles in the 5.00 seconds..
My mutt dog who seems to be a mix of pug, schnauzer, and dachshund, Boomer, likes to eat worms. He spots a juicy one in the grass and takes off from our porch at 5.22 m/s. When he reaches the worm, 8.16 m from our porch, he determines it's not up to his dog standards and decides to let it live another day. How long did it take Boomer to reach the worm, to two decimal places?
John walks 1.80 km north, then turns right and walks 1.20 km east. His speed is 1.40 m/s during the entire stroll.
Ima Rilla Saari is cruising at 28.0 m/s down Lake Avenue and through the forest preserve. She notices a deer jump into the road at a location 62.0 m in front of her. Ima first reacts to the event, then slams on her brakes and decelerates at -8.10 m/s2, and ultimately stops a picometer in front of the frozen deer. What is Ima's reaction time? (i.e., how long did it take Ima to react to the event prior to decelerating?)
At t = 0, a car is going 10 ft/s and is 368 ft from the start of the road. The driver accelerates the car at 17 ft/s2 until t = 173 s. How far from the start of the road is he at 173 s? (Answer in feet.)
You are observing the poles along the side of the road. You have already stopped and measured the distance between adjacent poles as 33.1 m. You are now driving again and have activated your smartphone stopwatch. You start the stopwatch at t = 0 as you pass pole #1. At pole #2, the stopwatch reads 11.8 s. At pole #3, the stopwatch reads 30.7 s. Your friend tells you that he was pressing the brake and slowing down the car uniformly during the entire time interval from pole #1 to pole #3. (Assume you are driving in the positive direction when t = 0.) (a) What was the acceleration (in m/s²) of the car between poles #1 and #3? (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) m/s² (b) What was the velocity (in m/s) of the car at pole #1? (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) m/s (c) If the motion of the car continues as described, what is the number of the last pole passed before the car comes to rest? O pole #1 pole #2 pole #3 pole #4 O pole #5

Tired, you walk from your house to a local coffee shop to get an espresso. You average a speed of 2.4 m/s on your way there. After your espresso, you decide to run directly back to your starting point with an average speed of 5.6 m/s. Assume you spend 4 minutes at the coffee shop. If your average speed for this entire trip is 1.9 m/s, what is the distance between your house and the coffee shop?
On earth, it takes 1 hr for the hand on a clock to move from 1PM to 2PM. The clock is moved to the moon, where the acceleration due to gravity is 1.63 m/s2. How long does it take the hand on the clock to move from 1PM to 2PM on the moon?
Jeff Bezos just landed on the moon and is conducting an experiment, he drops a hammer from rest from a height of 2.01 m and uses a stopwatch to measure that the hammer takes 1.04 s to hit the ground. 1) Determine the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity on the moon. 2) he then throws the hammer straight up into the Martian sky. If it comes back to his hand in 4.20 s, with what speed did he throw it?
