A graph of position versus time for a certain particle moving along the x-axis is shown in the figure below. Find the instantaneous velocity at the instant t = 1s 2 m/s 3 m/s 4 m/s 5 m/s
Which of the following is the correct conversion of initial velocity in base SI units? Refer to the problem given below. Lamborghini Murcielago is one of the most iconic cars ever as it was featured as a Batmobile in the third installment of Batman Trilogy directed by Christopher Nolan. If it can go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 3 seconds, what is its rate of change in velocity per unit time? (1 mile is equal to 1.61 kilometers)
In heavy rush-hour traffic, you drive in a straight line at 12 m/s for 1.5 minutes, then you have to stop for 3.5 minutes, and finally, you drive at 15 m/s for another 2.5 minutes. Plot a position-versus-time graph for this motion. Your plot should extend from t = 0 minutes to t = 7.5 minutes. Assume x=0 and t=0 at the start of your motion.
A motor car is moving with initial velocity in the x-direction at 30 m/s. After 30 s, the car applies its brakes steadily to slow down the car to a velocity of 10 m/s in 12 s. The continues onward for 10 s more. How far in m did the car travel for the full 52 s? Report your answer to three sig figs, you don't need to write "m". HINT: Break up the problem into three stages - 30s, 12s, and the final 10s. During the 12 s, you'll need the acceleration.
An object has an acceleration defined by the equation a=5t+4 (m/s^2) where "t" is in seconds. The initial velocity of the object is -10 m/s and started at a position s = 40m. 1. How much time is needed for the particle to reach a velocity equal to zero? Express your answer in unit of second. 2. What is the position of the object when it reaches zero velocity?
In this problem you will determine the average velocity of a moving object from the graph of its position x(t)x(t) as a function of time ttt. A traveling object might move at different speeds and in different directions during an interval of time, but if we ask at what constant velocity the object would have to travel to achieve the same displacement over the given time interval, that is what we call the object's average velocity. We will use the notation vave[t1,t2]vave[t1,t2] to indicate average velocity over the time interval from t1 to t2. For instance, vave[1,3]vave[1,3] is the average velocity over the time interval from t=1 to t=3. find V(ave) [0,3]

(d) Backward?
