1) If you are initially driving at a speed of 30 km/h with a constant acceleration of 2.0 m/s². Determine how much time, in seconds, it will take you to reach a speed of 60 km/h? 2) You've decided to take a walk for 15 minutes. You went 250 m due north and turned towards the east covering another 150 m before you stopped. Compute your average velocity in meters per second, m/s. 3) A car moves with a constant acceleration along a straight line. If after 3.0 seconds its velocity is 10.0 m/s and after 10.0 seconds the velocity is recorded to be 25.0 m/s, then what is its initial speed?

In 1967, New Zealander Burt Munro set the world recordfor an Indian motorcycle, on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah,with a maximum speed of 183.58 mi/h. The one-way coursewas 5.00 mi long. Acceleration rates are often described bythe time it takes to reach 60.0 mi/h from rest. If this time was4.00 s, and Burt accelerated at this rate until he reached hismaximum speed, how long did it take Burt to complete thecourse?
I took 2.28km and converted it to 2280 meters then divided by 3200 and ended up with .71m/s but it keeps saying that its incorrect. Im not sure where I keep messing up. John walks 1.80 kmkm north, then turns right and walks 1.40 kmkm east. His speed is 1.60 m/sm/sduring the entire stroll. What is the magnitude of his displacement, from beginning to end? (2.28) If Jane starts at the same time and place as John, but walks in a straight line to the endpoint of John's stroll, at what speed should she walk if she wants to arrive at the endpoint just when John does?
Driving along a crowded freeway, you notice that it takes atime t to go from one mile marker to the next. When you increaseyour speed by 7.9 mi>h, the time to go one mile decreases by 13 s.What was your original speed?
Dwight decides to race around the perimeter of the Scranton business parkin an effort to beat another employee’s best running time. Assuming heruns with an average velocity of 10 ft/s, and he completes 4 laps in 5minutes,a. What is the perimeter of the business park in feet?b. In meters?( 1 ft = 0.3048 m )
A police car is traveling at a velocity of 16.0 m/s due north, when a car zooms by at a constant speed of 50 m/s due north. After a reaction time of 0.700 s the policeman begins to pursue the speeder with an acceleration of 5.00 m/s2. Including the reaction time, how long does it take for the police car to catch up with the speeder?
Suppose a car merges into freeway traffic on a 200 - m - long ramp. If its initial velocity is Om / s and it accelerates at 2.00 m / s2, how long does it take the car to travel the 200 m up
If it takes a bicyclist 20 seconds to reach a speed of10 mph from rest, what is her acceleration? For thenext 10 minutes, she moves at the constant speed of10 mph, and at this time, she applies her brakes, andthe bicycle decelerates to a full stop in 4 seconds. Whatis the total distance traveled by the bicyclist? Determine the average speed of the cyclist during the first20 seconds, 620 seconds, and 624 seconds.
You're driving down the highway late one night at 21 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 38 m in front of you. Your reaction time before stepping on the brakes is 0.50 s , and the maximum deceleration of your car is 10 m/s2. How much distance is between you and the deer when you come to a stop?
Suppose a car merges into freeway traffic on a 200 m long ramp. If its initial velocity is 10.0 m/s and it accelerates at 2.00 m/s2, how long does it take the car to travel the 200 m up the ramp (in s)?
Suppose a car merges into freeway traffic on a 200-m-long ramp. If its initial velocity is 10.0 m/s and it accelerates at 2.00 m/s2, how long does it take to travel the 200 m up the ramp? (Such information might be useful to a traffic engineer.)
While running a marathon, a long-distance runner uses a stopwatch to time herself over a distance of 100 m. She finds that she runs this distance in 18 s. Answer the following by considering ratios, without computing her velocity. a. If she maintains her speed, how much time will it take her to run the next 400 m?
You are driving along at a constatnt speed of 26 m/s and you look down at your phone to read a text message for 2.5 seconds. How many meters does the car travel while you are not looking?
