The driver of a car traveling on the highway suddenly slams on the brakes because of a slowdown in traffic ahead. a) If the car’s speed decreases at a constant rate from 75 mi/hmi/h to 40 mi/hmi/h in 3.0 ss, what is the magnitude of its acceleration, assuming that it continues to move in a straight line? b) What distance does the car travel during the braking period?
It has been claimed that an insect called the froghopper (Philaenus spumarius) is the best jumper in the animal kingdom. This insect can accelerate at 4,000 m/s2 over a distance of 2.0 mm as it straightens its specially designed "jumping legs." Assuming a uniform acceleration, answer the following. (a) What is the velocity of the insect after it has accelerated through this short distance? (Enter the magnitude of the velocity.) (m/s) (b) How long did it take to reach that velocity? (ms) (c) How high would the insect jump if air resistance could be ignored? Note that the actual height obtained is about 0.7 m, so air resistance is important here. (m)
A certain aircraft has a liftoff speed of 127 km/h. (a) What minimum constant acceleration does the aircraft require if it is to be airborne after a takeoff run of 279 m? m/s2(b) How long does it take the aircraft to become airborne? s
A model rocket rises vertically from rest with a constant acceleration of 3.23 m/s2 until it runs out of fuel at an altitude of 948 m. Neglect air resistance and take upwards as the positive direction for position and velocity. (a) What maximum altitude does the rocket reach? (answer: 1260 m) (b) How much time does the rocket take to reach its maximum altitude? (answer: 32.3 s) (c) What is the velocity of the rocket at the moment it hits the ground? (answer: - 157 m/s) (d) What is the total flight time of the rocket from the moment it is launched until the moment it hits the ground? (answer: 48.3 s)

A daring ranch hand sitting on a tree limb wishes to drop vertically onto a horse galloping under the tree. The constant speed of the horse is 10.0 m/s, and the distance from the limb to the level of the saddle is 3.00 m.

Physics Review A hockey player strikes a puck, giving it an initial velocity of 10.0 m/s in the positive x-direction. The puck slows uniformly to 6.00 m/s when it has traveled 40.0 m. (a) What is the pucks acceleration? (b) At what velocity is it traveling after 2.00 s? (c) How long does it take to travel 40.0 m? (See Section 2.5.)
The froghopper Philaenus spumarius is supposedly the best jumper in the animal kingdom. To start a jump, this insect can accelerate at 4.00 km/s2 over a distance of 2.00 mm as it straightens its specially adapted jumping legs. Assume the acceleration is constant. (a) Find the upward velocity with which the insect takes off. (b) In what time interval does it reach this velocity? (c) How high would the insect jump if air resistance were negligible? The actual height it reaches is about 70 cm, so air resistance must be a noticeable force on the leaping froghopper.
