A subway train has to travel a distance of 1800 m until it stops at the next station. The train starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 1.60 m/s2 for 15.0 s. It then runs at a constant speed for some time and finally slows down at a rate of 4.0m/s2 until it stops at the next station. How long did it take to reach the next station?

- A car starts from rest and reaches a velocity of 18.0 m/s in 12.0 seconds. The car then continues traveling at a constant velocity for 20.0 seconds. At the end of the 20.0 seconds, the car uniformly decelerates at .600 m/s2 and finally comes to rest. How far did the car travel from start to finish ?arrow_forwardAn express train passes through a station that is 212 m long. It enters with an initial speed of 22.5 m/s and decelerates at a rate of 0.13 m/s2 as it goes through. During what time interval, in seconds, is the front of the train within the station? If the train is 120 m long, how long, in seconds, after the front of the train enters the station does the end of the train leave the station? What is the velocity of the end of the train as it leaves in m/s?arrow_forwardAn electric vehicle starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 3.0 m/s2 in a straight line until it reaches a speed of 21 m/s.

The gazelle notices the cheetah 2.0 s later and accelerates straight away with an acceleration of 5.2 m/s2. Assuming they both start from rest, how far (in meters) does the gazelle make it before being caught by the cheetah?arrow_forwardA man runs as the speed of 4.0 m/s to overtake a standing bus. When he is 6.0 m behind the door (at t=0),the bus moves forward and continues with a constant acceleration of 1.2 m/s2. How long does it take for the man to gain the door? If in the beginning, he is 10.0 m from the door, will he (running at the same speed) ever catch up?arrow_forwardA motorcyclist heading east through a small town accelerates at a constant 4.9 m/s/s after he leaves the city limits (See figure).

- Hugo and Big John are in a paw race. When Hugo is 22 m from the finish line, he has a speed of 4.0 m/s and is 5.0 m behind Big John, who has a speed of 5.0 m/s. Big John thinks he has an easy win and so, during the remaining portion of the race, decelerates at a constant rate of 0.50 m/s² to the finish line. What constant acceleration does Hugo now need during the remaining portion of the race, if he wishes to cross the finish line side-by-side with Big John?arrow_forwardYou are stuck on a two lane road behind a truck traveling 64.4 km/h (40 mph). You pull into the oncoming lane to pass and immediately begin accelerating at 2.50 m/s 2. After passing 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?arrow_forwardA car accelerates in the +x direction from rest with a constant acceleration of a1 = 1.5 m/s2 for t1 = 20 s. At that point the driver notices a tree limb that has fallen on the road and brakes hard for t2 = 5 s until it comes to a stop. How far, in meters, from the original location of the limb will the car be when it stops?arrow_forward
