Tanaya Acceleration Practice Questions name: Each question will be marked out of 3: 1- for the correct equation 1- for showing your work (placing the information into the equation and then solving for the unknown 1- for the correct answer and UNIT 1. A motorboat starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 2.0 m/s for 3.0 seconds. How fast is the motorboat travelling at the end of these 3.0 seconds? 2. A train is travelling at 60 km/h when Superman slams head-on into it bringing it smoothly to a stop before it falls off a cliff. Superman is able to stop the train in an amazing 2.5 seconds! What is the acceleration of the train? How many g's did the people on the train pull during this stop? (HINT: 1g = 9.8 m/s) 3. A child rides her bike down a hill at the bottom she feels she is going to fast so she applies the brakes. Initially she was travelling at 12 m/s. She accelerates at a constant rate of -0.60 m/s. How long does it take her to come to a stop? 4. A cheetah is able to run short distances at incredible speeds. It begins its run from rest to capture a nearby Thompson's Gazelle. In a matter of 4.7 s, the cheetah had caught its prey. Its acceleration was 8.93 m/s'. How far away was the Gazelle?

Part A: Knowledge and Understanding Questions Answer the following multiple choice questions by choosing the most appropriate answer. Place your answer in the answer key on the first page of your test booklet. 1. Which one of the following is NOT consistent with a car which is accelerating? a. moving with an increasing speed. b. moving with a decreasing speed. d. changing direction. c. moving with a high speed. 2. Anna Mungal is running down the football field in a straight line. She starts at the O-yard line at 0 seconds. At 1 second, she is on the 10-yard line; at 2 seconds, she is on the 20-yard line; at 3 seconds, she is on the 30-yard line; and at 4 seconds, she is on the 40-yard line.

Study this velocity-time graph. Choose from the following descriptions of motion: the object is moving at a constant velocity; the object is speeding up in the positive or negative direction; the object is slowing down in the positive or negative direction; the object moves towards origin; the object is changing direction. Question1. Describe the motion from initial velocity to A Question 2 Describe the motion from A to B Question 3. Describe the motion from B to C veloctity (m/s) 20 15 1 20 23 time (s) C
Using what's given below, answer the following parts for practice: Ansdrew needs to get produce from the store, which is a distance d=2.87 km east of his condo. Andrew rides his bicycle to the store at a constant speed of v1= 6.19 m/s, and rides back to his condoat the slower speed of v2=2.22 m/s. The figure below is not drawn to scale. Part A: How long, in seconds, does it take for Andrew to reach the store? And how long in both seconds and minutes does the whole trip take? Part B: What total distance, in kilometers, was traveled by Andrew during the whole trip? Part C: What is the magnitude, in kilometers, of Andrew's displacement for the entire trip and what was the direction of his displacement for the entire trip?
I am unsure of how to solve this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Draw the position-time graph produced when a person starts at the 0.50-m mark, walks away from the detector slowly and steadily for 3 seconds at 0.50 m/s, stops for 3 second, and then walks for 6 seconds toward the detector half as fast as he or she walked away from it, then sits there for 3 seconds. **Please show complete work and correct sig figs** 1. What is the acceleration from 6 to 12 seconds? 2. What is the velocity from 6 to 12 seconds? 3. What is the instantaneous velocity at 8 s and velocity at 14 s?
