Chapter 2, Problem 77P
SSM A hot rod can accelerate from 0 to 60 km/h in 5.4 s. (a) What is its average acceleration, in m/s2, during this time? (b) How far will it travel during the 5.4 s, assuming its acceleration is constant? (c) From rest, how much time would it require to go a distance of 0.25 km if its acceleration could be maintained at the value in (a)?

Usually, Tony travels to Bunbury from Perth city in 2.50 hours. One day he increases his
average speed by 12.0 km/h and takes 22.5 minutes less time to reach Bunbury.
(a) What was his usual average speed? What was the distance travelled?
(b) On the way he stopped at a rail crossing (6.00 m wide) and a train (total length 144m)
decelerating at -0.585 ms2 just entered the crossing with a velocity of 13.7 m s¹. Sketch
a diagram and find the minimum time for the last carriage of the train to clear the
crossing.
Problem 1. (a) A plane flies a distance of 100km with 200, then turns around and flies back.
How long will the flight take? (Ignore any acceleration and deceleration phases.)
(b) The same plane flies the same route on another day. This time the plane encounters a steady
headwind of 40 m in the outbound trip and correspondingly a tailwind of 40m on the return trip.
