A policeman is standing on the side of the road eating donuts when a politician who stole public funds drives past him at a constant speed of 120m/s. After 3s, the policeman decided to get inside his vehicle and go after the politician. If the police vehicle accelerates uniformly at 40m/s^2 (a) How long does it take him to catch the politician and congratulate him? (b) How far has he traveled in that time? (Assume the politician remained in motion at constant speed)
A driver is traveling 18.0 m/s when she sees a red light ahead. Her car is capable of decelerating at a rate of 3.40 m/s^2 A.) If it takes her 0.420 s to get the brakes on and she is 20.0 m from the intersection when she sees the light, will she be able to stop in time? Answer: No B.)How far from the beginning of the intersection will she be? I know the answer is not 47.64 or 10.21. Please HELP solve for B!
You are arguing over a cell phone while trailing an unmarked police car by 25m; both your car and the police car are travelling at 120km/h. Your argument diverts your attention from the police car for 2.0s (long enough for you to look at the phone and yell, “I won’t do that!”). At the beginning of that 2.0s, the police officer begins braking suddenly at 5.05m/s^2. What is the separation between the two cars when your attention finally returns? Suppose that you take another 0.500s to realize your danger and begin braking. If you too brake at 5.05 m/s^2, what is your speed when you hit the police car?
1. If you walk 500 m due North and then 200 m due South,a. What is your total distance covered?b. What is your displacement? 2. A spacecraft traveling at 1200 m/s is uniformly accelerated at the rate of 150 m/s2 by burning itssecond stage rocket. If the rocket burns for 18 seconds, what is the final speed of the craft?
Mr. C is standing at the origin on the x-axis at position O. He starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 2m/s/s [E] for 10s, then travels at a constant speed for 3 additional minutes, and then decides to accelerate at a rate of 1m/s/s[W] until he is travelling at a velocity of 5m/s[W]. Find the final position of Mr. C on the x-axis and the total time that he was in motion.
A child, who is L = 41 m from the bank of a river, is being carried helplessly downstream by the river's swift current of 1.0 m/s. As the child passes a lifeguard on the river's bank, the lifeguard starts swimming in a straight line until she reaches the child at a point downstream. a.) If the lifeguard can swim at a speed of 2.0 m/s relative to the water, how long does it take her to reach the child? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. b.)How far downstream does the lifeguard intercept the child? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
You drive a beat-up pickup truck along a straight road for 8.4 km at 70 km/h, at which point the truck runs out of gasoline and stops. Over the next 30 min, you walk another 2.0 km farther along the road to a gasoline station. (a) What is your overall displacement from the beginning of your drive to your arrival at the station?
Jim is driving his car at 32m/s (72mi/h) along a highway where the speed limit is 25m/s (55mi/h). A highway patrol car observes him pass and quickly reaches a speed of 36m/s. At that point, Jim is 300m ahead of the patrol car. How far does the patrol car travel before catching Jim?
A rugby ball on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravity is 0.379g and air resistance is negligible, is hit directlyupward and returns to the same level 9.25 sec later. (a) How fast was it moving just after being hit in ft/sec? (b) Howhigh above its original point did the ball go just before it fell back in feet?
