Walk along a long straight level path in the woods you go 30 m in 6.2 s, stop for 32 s, and then continue on in the same direction 40 m more in 15 s. What was your average speed for all of this?
A bicyclist is practicing to increase his endurance for a one-hour trip. He has an average speed of 30 m/s in the first 30 min. If the cyclist wants an average speed of 40 m/s for the entire trip, by how much does he need to increase his average speed in the last 30 minutes?
A hippopotamus can run up to 9.86 m/s. Suppose a hippopotamus
uniformly accelerates 0.28 m/s² until it reaches a top speed of 9.86
m/s. If the hippopotamus has run 25.1 m, what is its initial speed in
m/s? (round your answer to two decimal places; DO NOT include units)
