A chauffeur heads south with a steady speed of v, = 24.0 m/s for t, = 3.00 min, then makes a right turn and travels at v, = 25.0 m/s for t, = 2.00 min, and then drives northwest at v3 = 30.0 m/s for t, = 1.00 min. For this 6.00-min trip, calculate the following. Assume +x is in the eastward direction. (a) total vector displacement (Enter the magnitude in m and the direction in degrees south of west.) magnitude direction o south of west (b) average speed (in m/s) m/s (c) average velocity (Enter the magnitude in m/s and the direction in degrees south of west.) magnitude m/s direction ° south of west

In a classic clip on Americas Funniest Home Videos, a sleeping cat rolls gently off the top of a warm TV set. Ignoring air resistance, calculate the position and velocity of the cat after (a) 0.100 s, (b) 0.200 s, and (c) 0.300 s.
An unidentified flying object (UFO) is observed to travel a total distance of 29000 m, starting and ending at rest, over a duration of 4.77 s. Assuming the UFO accelerated at a constant rate to the midpoint of its journey and then decelerated at a constant rate the rest of the way, what was the magnitude of its acceleration? Express your answer in g s , where 1 g = 9.81 m/s^2. 520 g s 260 g s 5,098 g s 2,549 g s

How fast would a car have to round a turn with a radius of 70 m for its acceleration to be numerically equal to that of gravity? Answer should be in terms of velocity, in m/s.
At one instant a bicyclist is 40.0 m due east of a park's flagpole, going due south with a speed of 11.0 m/s. Then 37.0 s later, the cyclist is 40.0 m due north of the flagpole, going due east with a speed of 11.0 m/s. For the cyclist in this 37.0 s interval, what are the (e) magnitude and (f) direction of the average acceleration?
