A car is traveling east at 17.5 m/s when it turns due north and accelerates to 32.5 m/s, all during a time of 5.00 s. Calculate the magnitude of the car's average acceleration (in m/s2).
In 1967, New Zealander Burt Munro set the world record for an Indian motorcycle, on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, with a maximum speed of 183.58 mi/h. The one‐way course was 5.00 mi long. Acceleration rates are often described by the time it takes to reach 60.0 mi/h from rest. If this time was 4.00 s, and Burt accelerated at this rate until he reached his maximum speed, a. how long did it take Burt to complete the course? b. Sketch position vs time, velocity vs. time, and acceleration vs. time graphs for the race.
A pilot flies in a straight path for 1 h 30 min. She then makes a course correction, heading 10 degrees to the right of her original course, and flies 2 h in the new direction. If she maintains a constant speed of 660 mi/h, how far is she from her starting position? Your answer is _______________ mi Enter your answer rounded to two decimal places.
The acceleration of an object moving in a strange way has been modelled as a = e^x x.A) use integration by parts to find an equation to model the velocity v if v = ∫ e^x x dx (the x is the letter x not multiplication)B) is the problem any different if you find v = ∫ xe^x dx?
Nerve impulses in a human body travel at a speed of about 100 m/s. Suppose a person accidentally steps barefoot on a pebble. About how much time does it take the nerve impulse to travel from the foot to the brain (in s)? Assume the person is 1.60 m tall and the nerve impulse travels at uniform speed.

George, the absent-minded professor, drives his car 5.0 miles due east alonga straight road to the grocery store. Upon arriving there 15 minutes (0.25 h) after he left home, he suddenly realizes he forgot his grocery list. He immediately turns around and heads back towards home. After travelling 6.8 miles due west in 12 minutes (0.20 h), the car runs out of gas. What is his average speed during the not-quite-completed trip?
A racing car accelerates uniformly from rest along a straight track. This track has markers spaced at equal distances along it from the start. The car reaches a speed of 140 km/h as it passes marker 2. Where on the track was the car when it was travelling at half this speed, that is at 70 km/h?
Problem 3: You throw an object up with a speed of voy = 7 m/s from a height of y = 25 m. %3D Part (a) How long, in seconds, does it take for the object to reach the ground? Numeric : A numeric value is expected and not an expression. %3D
You decide to travel by car for your holiday visits this year. You leave early in the morning to avoid congestion on the roads. This enables you to drive at a comfortable speed of v1=67.1 mph for t1=1.70 hours. However, after this time, you unexpectedly come to a stop for tstop=43.8 min. Traffic starts moving again and you finish your travel at v2=55.6 mph for an additional t2=1.40 hours. There are 1609 meters in one mile. What was the total distance d traveled? What was the average speed v?
