A drag racer accelerates from rest at an average rate of +13.2 m/s2 for a distance of 100. m. The driver coasts for 0.500 seconds and then uses the brakes and parachute to decelerate until the end of the track. If the total length of the track is 180. m, what minimum deceleration rate must the racer have in order to stop prior to the end of the track?
The 1992 world speed record for a bicycle (human-powered vehicule) was set by Chris Huber. His time through the measured 200m stretch was a sizzling 6.509 s, at which he commented "Cognito ergo zoom". In 2001, Sam Whittingham's beat Hubert's record by 19.0km/h. What was Whittingham's time through the 200m? (hint: d=rt).
Sam crossed the finish line of a 100m race with a speed of 10.44m/s. If it took him an additional 3.2s to come to a complete stop after crossing the finish line then calculate his acceleration after crossing the finish line. Also how far after crossing the finish line did he come to a complete stop?
A hare and a tortoise compete in a race over a straight course 1.00 km long. Thetortoise crawls at a speed of 0.200 m/s toward the finish line. The hare runs at a speedof 8.00 m/s toward the Finish line for 0.800 km and then stops to tease the slowmoving tortoise as the tortoise eventually passes by. The hare waits for a while afterthe tortoise passes and then runs toward the finish line again at 8.00 m/s. Both thehare and the tortoise cross the finish line at the exact same instant. Assume bothanimals, when moving, move steadily at their respective speeds. (a) How far is thetortoise from the finish line when the hare resumes the racer (b) For how long in timewas the hare stationary?
Usain Bolt wants to complete a 10kilometer-run in less than 30 minutes. After running at constant speed for exactly 26 minutes, the runner still has 1.5km left to run. The runner must then accelerate at 0.30m/s2 for how many seconds to reach a final velocity that will allow them to complete the 1.5km left of the race in the desired time?
The 1992 world speed record for a bicycle (human-powered vehicle) was set by Chris Huber. His time through the measured 200 m stretch was a sizzling 6.509 s, at which he commented, “Cogito ergo zoom!” (I think, therefore I go fast!). In 2001, Sam Whittingham beat Huber’s record by 19.0 km/h. What was Whittingham’s time through the 200 m?
A car, initially at rest, accelerates at 9.0 m/s2 for a total of 5.1 s. How far did it go in this time?
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 ?
To help travelers get around the airport, a shuttle was built between two terminals. Starting from rest, the shuttle accelerates at 0.447 m/s2 for 37.1 s, cruises at this constent velocity for 62.5 s, and then deaccelerates at -0.275 m/s2 until it comes to a stop. What is the distance between the terminals?
