On a one lane road, a person driving a car at v1 = 58 mi/h suddenly notices a truck 1.1 mi in front of him. That truck is moving in the same direction at v2 = 35 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 magnitude of 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. 1. Use the expressions you entered in parts (c) and (f) and enter an expression for a in terms of d, v1, and v2. a = ( v2 - v1 )/Δt Δt = ( 2 ) ( d )/( v1 - v2 ) 2. Calculate the value of a in meters per second squared.
Most important in an investigation of an airplane crash by the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board is the data stored on the airplane’s flight-data recorder, commonly called the “black box” in spite of its orange coloring and reflective tape.The recorder is engineered to withstand a crash with an average deceleration of magnitude 3450 g during a time interval of 6.49 ms. In such a crash, if the recorder and airplane have zero speed at the end of that time interval, what is their speed at the beginning of the interval?

An unidentified flying object (UFO) is observed to travel a total distance of 19000 m, starting and ending at rest, over a duration of 4.23 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.
A body moving in the positive x-direction passes the origin at time t = 0. Between t = 0 and t = 1 second, the body has a constant speed of 14 (m/s).
