A thief is trying to escape from a parking garage after completing a robbery, and the thief’s car is speeding (v = 11 m/s) toward the door of the parking garage (Fig. P2.60). When the thief is L = 14 m from the door a police officer flips a switch to close the garage door. The door starts at a height of 7 m and moves downward at 0.3 m/s. If the thief’s car is 1.4 m tall, will the thief escape? (Find the height of the door above the ground).
A particle moves along the +ve direction of x-axis. Its position x depends on time t as x=at3+bt2+c+d. Let dx/dt represent instantaneous velocity d2x/dt2 represents instantaneous acceleration (α) of the particle.The average acc. of the particle is defined as <α> =∫αdt/dt. Find the average acc. in time interval t=0 to t=1s.

Page 5 of 8 5. As I drive on a back-country road, I suddenly see a deer "frozen" in the headlights. I was driving at 11.4 m/s, but immediately apply the brakes and slow with an acceleration of 3.80 ". a. If the deer was 20.0 m from my vehicle when the brakes were applied, how close did I come to hitting the deer? b. How much time was needed for my vehicle to stop?
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 car travels on a road that is parallel to a train track. The car stops at a traffic light and at the same time a train passes with a constant speed of 12.0 m/s. The car remains stopped for 6.0 s and then leaves with a constant acceleration of 2.0 m/s*. Determine: A) The time it takes the car to reach the train, measured from the moment it stopped at the traffic light. B) The distance that the car traveled from the traffic light until it reached the train. C) The speed of the car at the moment it reaches the train. The solutions should be : A) 22.4 s B) 268.8m C) 32.8m/s
