Cars A and B are racing each other along the same straight road in the following manner: Car A has a head start and is a distance DADAD_A beyond the starting line at t=0t=0. The starting line is at x=0x=0. Car A travels at a constant speed vAvAv_A. Car B starts at the starting line but has a better engine than Car A, and thus Car B travels at a constant speed vBvBv_B, which is greater than vAvAv_A. 2.) How far from Car B's starting line will the cars be when Car B passes Car A? Express your answer in terms of known quantities. (You may use tcatchtcatcht_catch as well.)
A single-engine air plain starts its engine at one end of the runway. It accelerates at a constant rate and takes off at 38 m/s after 20 seconds on the runway, just as it is running out of runway. How long is the runway? Your Answer:
The runway of NAIA airport has a total length of 530 m. A plane 2500 m away from the beginning of the runway is about to land with an approch velocity of 250 m/s. Assuming that you need a minimum deceleration of 9m/sec² to land the plane. Note that there is no need to take account the height of the plane. a.) what will be the distance covered by the plane? b.) If the pilot did not attempt to decrease the velocity of the plane until it reaches the ground, what will be the distance covered by the plane? c.) Determine the intensity of the acceleration to bring the plane into a halt without overshooting assuming that the plane settled into a velocity of approach of 210 m/s
A boy has a height of 1.83 meters measured from the ground surface. She then lifts a rock and throw it straight upward giving it an upward acceleration coming from rest of 35.0 m/s^2 for 64 cm. The ball was released 2.20 m above the ground. A.)How high above the ground does the rock go? B.) compute the time she must get out of its way before it returns exactly at his height
A speeder races by a hidden policeman. The speeder is moving at 30 m/sec. 2 seconds after he passes the policeman pulls out of hiding and accelerates at 5 m/sec/sec. How far will the from the "hideout" will they be when the policeman catches up?
David is driving at a steady 30 m/s when he passes Linda, who is sitting in her car at rest. Linda then begins to accelerate at a steady 2 m/s^2. At the instant, David passes her. a. How far does Linda drive before passing David? B. What is her speed as she passes him?
You throw a small rock straight up from the edge of a highway bridge that crosses a river. The rock passes you on its way down, 5.00 s after it was thrown. What is the speed of the rock just before it reaches the water 28.0 m below the point where the rock left your hand? Ignore air resistance.
An electron with an initial speed of 4.56x10^5m/s enters a linear particle accelerator that is3.50 cm long. In this section, the electron is accelerated to a final speed of 3.25x10^5m/s a) . Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration of the electron. b) Determine the time of acceleration

The starting line is at x=0x=0. Car A travels at a constant speed vAvAv_A. Car B starts at the starting line but has a better engine than Car A, and thus Car B travels at a constant speed vBvBv_B, which is greater than vAvAv_A. 1.) How long after Car B started the race will Car B catch up with Car A? Express the time in terms of given quantities.

Clarissa is running at 5m/s to catch the school bus, which is stopped to a nearby bus stop. When Clarissa is still 40 meters away from the bus, the bus is already moving with a constant acceleration of 0.170 m/s2 . A. Compute the time and the distance does Clarissa have to run before she can overtake the bus. B. At the instant she reaches the bus, how fast is the bus moving?
In heavy rush-hour traffic, you drive in a straight line at 12 m/s for 1.5 minutes, then you have to stop for 3.5 minutes, and finally, you drive at 15 m/s for another 2.5 minutes. Plot a position-versus-time graph for this motion. Your plot should extend from t = 0 minutes to t = 7.5 minutes. Assume x=0 and t=0 at the start of your motion.
