2) A train has a normal speed of 60 mph. When putting on brakes, it can decelerate at a rate of 2 mph/s and when starting can accelerate at a rate of 1 mph/s. Calculate the minimum distance between two stations for which the train just can reach its 60 mph speed before putting on the brakes again. ANS. 0.75 miles

1) A train is travelling at a speed of 40 m/s on a curved path of radius 1000 m. The brakes are applied and the train speed is reduced at a constant rate to 30 m/s in 6 seconds. Compute the magnitude of the total acceleration (in g's, recall 1 g = 9.81 m/s^2) of the train immediately after the brakes are applied. 2
Consider an aircraft in an accelerated turn in a circular arc with a radius of 2.6 km. The airspeed (in m/s) is given by 200 + 3 t (with t in seconds). Calculate the magnitude of acceleration (in m/s²) at t = 8 s.
This question is similar to the question above but read and calculate carefully. The situation has changed and the numbers have changed. Bonita Cart Bonita is again pulling a cart to the right. The cart used to be tied to a wall but now the rope has broken so the cart rolls over the horizontal floor without friction. Assume that the only forces on the cart are tension forces (including the force from Bonita), normal forces, and gravity with g = 9.81 m/s?. Bonita's shoes do not slide over the floor. Bonita has a mass of 52 kg. The cart has a mass of 45 kg. The mass of the rope is small enough to be ignored. Bonita is pulling the cart with a constant force of 283 newtons. Calculate the magnitude of the force that the cart exerts on Bonita. Note that the magnitude of a force is a positive quantity.
This is a graph for an experiment that examines the change in kinetic energy. A mass hanger of 10 g was used for this experiment and this is the graph showing the change in kinetic energy versus distance it travelled. If another student repeated the experiment, but with a 5 g mass hanger instead, does the acceleration increase? How would this look like in the graph? Please draw a line in this graph to show this scenario.

4) You were leisurely flying your F-18 when you encounter an alien aircraft. The alien was flying at an altitude of 3 km while you were at an altitude of 600 m. You begin to increase your speed at a rate of 2.0 m/s?. You are traveling at a speed of 750 km/h at the instant when 0 = 45° and at the same instant the alien has a constant velocity of 1,500 km/h. a) Determine the velocity and acceleration vectors (in m/s and m/s², respectively) of the alien as observed by you. [Ans. to Check: VB/A = 208.4 įm/s] b) Determine the time rate of change of the vector r that is between you and the alien ship in m/s. In other words, find r. [Ans. to Check: i = 147.32 m/s] Hint: Do not forget about your ability to dot in different directions to eliminate variables from the equation. c) Calculate the angular velocity of the spaceship relative to you in rad/s. d) Determine the radial and angular accelerations in m/s? and rad/s².
