Shane Zaragosa was driving a vehicle in Davao where he got distracted by a group of cute students of San Pedro College until he noticed the stoplight just about 45 feet ahead. How much deceleration should he need in feet per second per second if he is at a velocity of 60 mph and he needs to stop at the stoplight?

While driving at 45.0 mi/hr (20.1 m/s) on a straight portion of Route 9 West, Randi notices that the traffic light has turned red at the intersection directly ahead. Randi applies his brakes, slows his car down at a steady rate, and brings his car to rest, while traveling the 60.0 m distance to the stop line (at the red light). 21. While he is slowing down, the acceleration of Randi's car has a magnitude of A. 6.73 m, В. 16.9 m 2. 169 m/: А. С. 33,8 т D. 9.80 m E. 3.37 m / 22. How much time passes as Randi's car slows down from 45.0 mi/hr to 0 m/s? A. 20.68 s. B. 5.97 s. C. 2.66 s. D. 2.99 s. E. 0.596 s. 23. While Randi's car is slowing down, his car's acceleration is A. directed straight down towards the Earth's center. B. equal to zero. C. directed straight upwards. D. directed parallel to the car's velocity. E. directed antiparallel to the car's velocity.
Archibald, an aging geezer, is out bicycling one fine afternoon, reliving his glorious youth and oblivious to the world around him. As he approaches a busy intersection, a police officer directing traffic blows his whistle to get Archie’s attention so he’ll slow down and stop. But Archie doesn’t stop; he just speeds right through the intersection as if the traffic cop wasn’t even there. The cop radios one of his colleagues and gets her to stop the old geezer. She gives him a traffic citation for failing to heed the command of a police officer directing traffic. When the case gets to traffic court, Archie explains to the judge that he didn’t hear the officer’s whistle because he is going deaf and cannot hear frequencies above 3000 Hz. The traffic cop informs the judge that his standard issue police whistle emits a frequency of 2100 Hz and he has a certificate to prove it. Thinking quickly (at least for an old geezer) Archie says that it may be true that the police whistle emits a sound…

A driver is driving uphill. He maintained his throttle, causing his car to constantly decelerate as it is coming up the hill. The road going up the hill is 217 m long and it took him 8.8 seconds to get to the top of the hill. His speed has reduced to 22 m/s at that point. What was the car's acceleration (include a negative sign in your answer)? Hint: the initial position of the car can be set at the origin.
Imagine you are in charge of figuring out the maximum speed of a very foggy road. Consider a road that we cannot see anything beyond 15 meters. Suppose that human reaction time is 0.3s and the deceleration from pressing the brake is -10m/s². What should be the speed limit for this road in [m/s]? Hint: during the reaction time, the car still moves with constant speed. The car starts slowing down when the brake is pressed.
Alex goes cruising on his dirty bike. He rides 700 meters north and 300 meters east. What distance did he cover? What was his displacement?
A ball rolls along flat ground at 7.5 m/s (call this the positive direction) then encounters a hill. If the ball rolls 19 m up the hill before coming to a stop, what was the acceleration (in m/s2) experienced by the ball as it rolled up the hill?
A car is traveling at a steady 81 km/h in a 50 km/h zone. A police motorcycle takes off at the instant the car passes it, accelerating at a steady 8.4 m/s2 . How much time elapses before the motorcycle is moving as fast as the car?
A car traveling at 16.8 m/s is 20.7 m from a barrier when the driver slams on the brakes. The car hits the barrier 2.54 s later. What was the acceleration of the car? Be careful to get the sign correct! Express your answer in m/s? to 3 significant figures.
A cockroach is running across the floor at a velocity of 1.5 cm/s trying to find some Takis (that a physics student spilled). All of a sudden it sees a student coming to step on it so it stops. This all occurred in 0.5 seconds. What was the cockroach’s rate of acceleration?
There is a 1500 mile race course. The max forward acceleration is 4 m/s2 and the max backward acceleration is 6 m/s2. I start at 600 m and must go to the 800 m mark (I must travel 200 m). What is an equation for the fastest time that I could get to 800 m? What is the position, time, and velocity of my vehicle?
You and your family are going on a road trip to visit your recently married cousin in B.C. The total round trip distance is 2100 km. On the way to B.C., you encounter no setbacks and you are able to drive on average at a constant speed. On the way home from B.C., you encounter a snowstorm and your mom has to slow down to avoid getting into an accident. Thus, your average speed decreases by 10 km/h. If the total driving time was 42 hours, what was your average speed on the way to B.C.? Recall distance = speed x time.
