2. You decide to enjoy the lovely Santa Barbara weather by taking a ride in your car along the coast. (a) Driving on 101, you pass by an accident. How far does your car travel forward during the 1 second that you take to look at the accident on the side of the road, if you're going with 100 km/h? (b) Then, you drive up a hill at a constant speed of 40 km/h and return down the hill at a speed of 60 km/h. What is the average speed for the round trip?

4. At 12:00 noon, an arctic explorer starts heading back to his base camp located 5.15 km due north, when a snowstorm suddenly rolls in. Due to poor visibility, he ends up walking 6.22 km at 15.0o east of north until the storm breaks. a) After the storm breaks, how far and in what direction must he walk to get back to his camp? b) If he walks at a constant speed and gets back to his camp at 2:30 PM, at what time (to the nearest minute) did the storm break?
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.)

A hypothetical spaceship takes a straight-line path from the Earth to the moon, a distance of about 400,000 km. Suppose it accelerates at 10.0 m/s2 for the first 20 minutes of the trip, then travels at constant speed until the last 20 minutes, when it accelerates at -10.0 m/s2, just coming to rest as it reaches the moon. What total time in minutes is required for the trip?
In World War II, there were several reported cases of airmen who jumped from their flaming airplanes with no parachute to escape certain death. Some fell about 20,000 feet (6000 m), and some of them survived, with few life-threatening injuries. For these lucky pilots, the tree branches and snow drifts on the ground allowed their deceleration to be relatively small. If we assume that a pilot's speed upon impact was 123 mph (54 m/s), then what was his deceleration? Assume that the trees and snow stopped him over a distance of 3.0 m.
