A steam catapult launches a jet aircraft from the aircraft carrier John C. Stennis, giving it a speed of 175 mi/h in 2.50 s. (a) Find the average acceleration of the plane. (b) Assuming the acceleration is constant, find the distance the plane moves.
On a one lane road, a person driving a car at v1 = 76 mi/h suddenly notices a truck d = 1.9 mi in front of him. That truck is moving in the same direction at v2 = 45 mi/h. In order to avoid a collision, the person has to reduce the speed of his car to v2 during time interval Δt. The smallest acceleration required for the car to avoid a collision is a. During this problem, assume the direction of motion of the car is the positive direction. Refer to the figure below. a)Enter an expression, in terms of defined quantities, for the distance, Δx2, traveled by the truck during the time interval Δt. b)Enter an expression for the distance, Δx1, traveled by the car in terms of v1, v2 and a. c)Enter an expression for the acceleration of the car, a, in terms of v1, v2, and Δt. d)Enter an expression for Δx1 in terms of Δx2 and d when the driver just barely avoids collision. e)Enter an expression for Δx1 in terms of v1, v2, and Δt. f)Enter an expression for Δt in terms of d, v1, and v2. g)…

Answer:_____________s (b) What is the average velocity of the taxi for the motion described? (Enter the magnitude in m/s.) Answer:______________m/s
A car is 126 m from a stop sign and traveling toward the sign at 29 m/s. At this time, the driver suddenly realizes that she must stop the car. If it takes 0.200 s for the driver to apply the brakes, what must be the magnitude of the constant acceleration of the car after the brakes are applied so that the car will come to rest at the stop sign?
