A red train traveling at 72 km/h and a green train traveling at 144 km/h are headed towardeach other along a straight, level track. When they are 950 m apart, each engineer seesthe other's train and applies the brakes. The brakes slow each train at the rate of 1.0 m/s².Is there a collision? If so, answer yes and give the speed of the red train and the speed ofthe green train at impact, respectively.

Hello, I had a physics question. "Just as the traffic light changes to green, a Mustang drives through the intersection at a constant velocity of 14.2 m/s [N]. A Camaro that was stopped at the light accelerates from rest at 2.9 m/s^2 [N]. How much time passes before the two cars meet again? How far have they travelled? I figured out how to do the question but I'm really confused on the units of the distance. I used the d = v/t formula and the vit + 1/2at^2 formula but the units I ended up getting were m^2/s^3 for distance when it should just be m.
Do highway speed limit signs refer to average speeds or to instantaneous speeds? Explain.
A landscape architect is planning an artificial waterfall in a city park. Water flowing at 1.70 m/s will leave the end of a horizontal channel at the top of a vertical wall h = 2.35 m high, and from there it will fall into a pool (Fig. P3.42). (a) Will the space behind the waterfall be wide enough for a pedestrian walkway? (b) To sell her plan to the city council, the architect wants to build a model to standard scale, which is one-twelfth actual size. How fast should the water flow in the channel in the model? Figure P3.42
A car is traveling at a speed of 33 m/s. (a) What is its speed in kilometers per hour? (b) Is it exceeding the 90 km/h speed limit?
A spaceship ferrying workers to Moon Base I takes a straight-line path from the earth to the moon, a distance of 384,000 km. Suppose it accelerates at an acceleration 20.4 m/s2m/s2 for the first time interval 15.5 minmin of the trip, then travels at constant speed until the last time interval 15.5 minmin , when it accelerates at −− 20.4 m/s2m/s2 , just coming to rest as it reaches the moon. A) What is the maximum speed attained? B) What fraction of the total distance is traveled at constant speed? C) What total time is required for the trip?
The brakes on your car can slow you at a rate of 5.2 m/s2. (a) If you are going 137 km/h and suddenly see a state trooper, what is the minimum time in which you can get your car under the 90 km/h speed limit? (The answer reveals the futility of braking to keep your high speed from being detected with a radar or laser gun.) (b) Graph x versus t and v versus t for such a slowing.
The first supersonic flight was performed by Charles Yeager in 1947. During his attempt, he flew from 119 m/s to top speed, accelerating at 7.29 m/s^2 for a distance of 5251 m. What top speed did he achieve?
2. A motorist saw a humps 33 m away at a speed of 14.5 m/s. He immediately slams on the brake and decelerates 1.2 m/s 2 with a speed of 11.7 m/s. (a) Will he stop before the humps (express your answer in magnitude)? (b) How long it will take before stopping?
A bicyclist rides the first 60 km of a 220 km race in 1.5 hours. What is the bicyclist average speed? I know that the answer is 7.5, however I'm trying to establish a formula for solving problems such as this one. Is there a formula that you can provide to solve problems that require calculating miles per hour based on only feet and seconds?
"In 1865, Jules Verne proposed sending men to the Moon by firing a space capsule from a 220-m-long cannon with final speed of 10.97 km/s. What would have been the unrealistically large acceleration experienced by the space travelers during their launch? (A human can stand an acceleration of 15g for a short time.)" Also "Compare your answer with the free-fall acceleration, 9.80 m/s2."
A spaceship ferrying workers to Moon Base I takes a straight-line path from the earth to the moon, a distance of 384,000 km. Suppose it accelerates at 20.0 m/s2 for the first 15.0 min. of the trip, then travels at constant speed until the last 15.0 min. when it accelerates at –20 m/s2, just coming to rest as it reaches the moon. (a) What is the maximum speed attained? (b) What fraction of the total distance is traveled at constant speed? (c) What total time is required for the trip?
Usain Bolt wants to complete a10kilometer-run in less than30 minutes.After running at constant speed for exactly26 minutes, the runner still has1.5kmleft to run.The runner must then accelerate at0.30m/s2for how many seconds to reach a final velocity that will allow them to complete the1.5kmleft of the race in the desired time?
