Trains on a certain portion of track are running at "V" kph. How far from the back of a stopped train should a warning sign be placed to prevent collision between the two trains? Assume that the train accelerates (both positive and negative) at "acc" m/s² and are applied immediately once the sign was seen. SID: 2018- abcdef STOP S Vo = 50+ 3a - b kph acc = 3 + 0.1c - 0.01e m/s² —01

George walks to a friend’s house. He walks 750 meters North, then realizes he walked too far. He turns around and walks 250 meters South. The entire walk takes him 13 seconds. What is his velocity in meters per second? Also, is the acceleration due to gravity negative or positive or it depends? I'm really confused. Please help and explain in an easy to understand.
