A motorcycle is following a car that is traveling at constant speed on a straight highway. Initially, the car and the motorcycle are both traveling at the same speed of 19.0 m/s, and the distance between them is 85.0 m. After t₁ = 2.00 s, the motorcycle starts to accelerate at a rate of 5.00 m/s². The motorcycle catches up with the car at some time t2.

Driving along a crowded freeway, you notice that it takes atime t to go from one mile marker to the next. When you increaseyour speed by 7.9 mi>h, the time to go one mile decreases by 13 s.What was your original speed?
The distance S that an object falls varies directly with the square of the time t. If an object falls 16 feet in one second, how long for it to fall 400 feet? The time required to drive a fixed distance varies inversely as the speed. It takes 1 hr at a speed of 400 km/h to drive a fixed distance. How long will it take to drive the same distance at a speed of 8 km/h?

In the vertical jump, an athlete starts from a crouch and jumps upward to reach as high as possible. Even the best athletes spend little more than 1.00 s in the air (their "hang time"). Treat the athlete as a particle and let ymax be his maximum height above the floor.To explain why he seems to hang in the air, calculate the ratio of the time he is above ymax/2 (moving up from ymax/2 to ymax and then moving down to ymax/2) to the time it takes him to go from the floor to that height. You may ignore air resistance.
