Problem 12 Some troublemaking kids are dropping water balloons from the roof of your apartment building. You are in your fifth-floor room and your window is 25 m above the sidewalk outside. You look outside and see that each balloon hits the pavement 1.5 s after passing your window. Express answers using 2 significant figures. a) How fast are the balloons traveling when they pass your window? b) Assuming the balloons are being released from rest, from what height above your window are they being released? c) If you threw a balloon upwards from your window with an initial speed of 6.5 m/s, would you be able to get it to the roof?

Suppose a car is traveling at +24.3 m/s, and the driver sees a traffic light turn red. After 0.219 s has elapsed (the reaction time), the driver applies the brakes, and the car decelerates at 4.00 m/s2. What is the stopping distance of the car, as measured from the point where the driver first notices the red light?
You are driving down the highway late one night at 20 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 40 m in front of you. Your reaction time before stepping on the brakes is 0.50 s, and the maximum deceleration of your car is 12 m/s2. How much distance is between you and the deer when you come to a stop? distance: m What is the maximum speed you could have and still not hit the deer? maximum speed:
A Ferrari traveling well over the posted speed limit, passes a parked Tennessee State Trooper who decided to give chase. It takes the trooper 4.6 seconds to turn on the 'blue lights' and get the 'at rest' PW5000 powered Dodge interceptor moving. Then 8.3 seconds more to accelerate to its top speed and 63 seconds more to catch up with the speeder 3.5 km down the highway from the trooper's parking spot. Determine the average speed of the Ferrari over this distance in km/hr

A motorcycle starts from rest when t = 0 and travels along a straight road at a constant velocity of 7.0 ft/s² until it reaches a speed of 60 ft/s. Then it maintains this speed. Also, when t = 0, a car located 6000 ft from the motorcycle is traveling toward the motorcycle at a constant speed of 40 ft/s. Determine the time when they intersect.
A car was traveling at 33.0 m/s on a poorly lit country road. The driver started to brake 0.35 seconds after he sees that a bridge is under construction 75 meters ahead. The car slowed down uniformly. What must be the minimum acceleration be to avoid crashing into the construction?
