A train is traveling down a straight track at 32 m/s when the engineer applies the brakes, resulting in an acceleration of −1.0 m/s2 as long as the train is in motion. How far does the train move during a 64-s time interval starting at the instant the brakes are applied in meters?
A race car starts from rest and travels east along a straight and level track. For the first 5.0 s of the car's motion, the eastward component of the car's velocity is given by υx(t)=(0.920m/s^3)t^2 What is the acceleration of the car when υx = 12.8 m/s ? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
A train is traveling down a straight track at 20 m/s when the engineer applies the brakes, resulting in an acceleration of −1.0 m/s2 as long as the train is in motion. How far does the train move during a 40-s time interval starting at the instant the brakes are applied?

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?
A cyclist is initially at rest at the origin. At t=0 she starts to accelerate at a constant rate, along a straight road reaching a velocity of 4.00 m/s after 12.0 seconds. 12.0 seconds after starting a prairie dog runs across her path and the cyclist hits the brakes, producing a new constant acceleration. 13.0 seconds after starting, the cyclist has a velocity of 1.50 m/s . What is the acceleration, a1a1, of the cyclist in the first part of the motion, between t = 0 and 12s? What is the acceleration of the cyclist, a_2 , in the second part of the motion between t = 12 and 13s? What is her average acceleration in this 13-s interval? What is the position of the cyclist at 13s, x_13?
Two objects fly toward each other. When they are 1,200 m apart, their velocities and accelerations are v1 = 45 m/s, v2 = 15 m/s, a1 = 0.51 m/s2, and a2 = 1.35 m/s2. A third object left the first object and moves with constant velocity of 55.1 m/s towards the second object. Upon reaching the second object, it flies back to the first object and so on until the first and second objects collide. Find the total distance traveled by the third object
