A Boeing 747 "Jumbo Jet" has a length of 59.7 m. The runway on which the plane lands intersects another runway. The width of the intersection is 21.9 m. The plane decelerates through the intersection at a rate of 5.06 m/s² and clears it with a final speed of 43.2 m/s. How much time is needed for the plane to clear the intersection? Number i Units

A suspicious-looking man runs as fast as he can along a moving sidewalk from one end to the other, taking 2.90 s. Then security agents appear, and the man runs as fast as he can back along the sidewalk to his starting point, taking 10.5 s. What is the ratio of the man's running speed to the sidewalk's speed?

1 A car has acceleration of 1.20 m/s2 and starts from 2.50 m/s. What is its speed after 5.00 seconds, in m/s? Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement. 2 A car is traveling at 30 m/s ( The driver applies the brakes and the car comes to a stop in 4.0 s What is the car's acceleration, in m/s2? Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.
Acceleration a has the dimensions of length per time squared, speed v has the dimensions of length per time, and radius r has the dimension of length. Which of the following expressions may be correct? Explain your answer in each case. a. a = vr b. a = v/r c. a = v2/r d. a = v/r2
(a) A daredevil is attempting to jump his motorcycle over a line of buses parked end to end by driving up a 32° ramp at a speed of 40.0 m/s (144 km/h). How many buses can he clear if the top of the takeoff ramp is at the same height as the bus tops and the buses are 20.0 m long? (b) Discuss what your answer implies about the margin of error in this act—that is, consider how much greater the range is than the horizontal distance he must travel to miss the end of the last bus. (Neglect air resistance.)
A motorist drives for 35.0 minutes at 85.0 km/h and then stops for 15.0 minutes. He then continues north, traveling 130. Km in 2.00 h. (a) What is his total displacement? (b) What is his average velocity?
The speed limit on some interstate highways is roughly 100 km/h. (a) What is this in meters per second? (b) How many miles per hour is this?
(a) Calculate the height of a cliff if it takes 2.35 s for a rock to hit the ground when it is thrown straight up from the cliff with an initial velocity of 8.00 m/s. (b) How long would it take to reach the ground if it is thrown straight down with the same speed?
An insect called the froghopper (Philaenus spumarius) has been called the best juniper in the animal kingdom. This insect can accelerate at over 4.0 103 m/s2 during a displacement of 2.0 mm as it straightens its specially equipped jumping legs. (a) Assuming uniform acceleration, what is the insect's speed after it has accelerated through this short distance? (b) How long does it take to reach that speed? (c.) How high could the insect jump if air resistance could be ignored? Note that, the actual height obtained is about 0.70 m, so air resistance is important here.
