You are stuck on a two-lane road behind a truck traveling 64.4 km/h (40 mi/h). You pull into the oncoming lane to pass and immediately begin accelerating at 2.50 m/s². After pass- ing the truck, 6.10 s have elapsed. You stop accelerating and pull back into your lane. How far down the road did you travel in the oncoming lane (in meters) during the time interval?

A car starts from 2.00 m/s and accelerates at 4.00 m/s2 for 6.0 s, it coasts for 5.00 s, and then slows down at a rate of 2.00 m/s2to a stop. How far has it traveled, in meters? Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.
12. Car B is traveling a distance d ahead of car A. Both cars are traveling at 60 t%s when the driver of B suddenly applies the brakes, causing his car to decelerate at 12 /32. It takes the driver of car A 0.75 s to react (this is the normal reaction time for drivers). When he applies his brakes, he decelerates at 151/,2. Determine the minimum distance d be tween the cars so as to avoid a collision. (Practice at Home) A B

You purchase the new Tesla Roadster and decide to take it out for a spin on theNewmarket Race Track. After getting to a top speed of 410. km/hr, suddenly atree falls down on the road blocking your path. You slam on your brakes to avoidhitting the fallen tree and thus, come to a complete stop. You were at a distanceof 30.0 m away from the tree when you hit the brakes. Assuming that theRoadster does not skid, what is the minimum deceleration needed to avoidhitting the fallen tree?
here is my problem, I need help: One simple model for a person running the 100 mm dash is to assume the sprinter runs with constant acceleration until reaching top speed, then maintains that speed through the finish line. If a sprinter reaches his top speed of 11.1 m/sm/s in 2.64 ss , what will be his total time? Express your answer in seconds.
