A car accelerates with a constant acceleration of 1.2 m · s-2 along a long straight road. How long does it take the car to accelerate from 100 kph to 110 kph, and how far does it travel while doing so? [Hint: watch your units and your significant figures. Because there is no other information, take the speeds as three significant figures.] It takes seconds to accelerate to 110 kph. While accelerating, the car travels m. Separate your answers with a comma. Example: a, b

1. A car travels 4.5 km in 10 minutes. What was its average velocity? ANSWER:
You are driving 65.0 miles/hour and you see a police car, so you slow down to 42.5 miles/hour. It takes you 3 seconds to do this. What is your deceleration? (I asked this one before, but someone plugged in -22.5 miles/hr x 2.237 m/s / 1 mile an hour which I didn't understand)
