The brakes on your car can slow you at a rate of 5.2 m/s2. (a) If you are going 137 km/h and suddenly see a state trooper, what is the minimum time in which you can get your car under the 90 km/h speed limit? (The answer reveals the futility of braking to keep your high speed from being detected with a radar or laser gun.) (b) Graph x versus t and v versus t for such a slowing.
An ambulance driver is rushing a patient to the hospital. While traveling at 71.1 km/h, she notices the traffic light at the upcoming intersection has turned yellow. To reach the intersection before the light turns red, she must travel 52 m in 2.17 seconds. What is the magnitude of the minimum acceleration, in m/s2, required to reach the intersection before the light turns red?
A taxi traveling along a straight section of road starts from rest, accelerating at 2.00 m/s2 until it reaches a speed of 28.0 m/s. Then the vehicle travels for 61.0 s at constant speed until the brakes are applied, stopping the vehicle in a uniform manner in an additional 5.00 s. (A) How long is the taxi in motion (in s)? Answer: 80 seconds (B) What is the average velocity of the taxi for the motion described? (Enter the magnitude in m/s.) ___________________m/s

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 unsuspecting bird is coasting along in an easterly direction at 4.00 mph when a strong wind from the south imparts a constant acceleration of 0.200 m/s2 . If the wind's acceleration lasts for 3.10 s , find the magnitude ?r and direction ?θ (measured counterclockwise from the easterly direction) of the bird's displacement over this time interval. Assume that the bird is originally travelling in the +?+x direction and that there are 1609 m in 1 mi . ?= ? ?= ? Now, assume the same bird is moving along again at 4.00 mph in an easterly direction, but this time, the acceleration given by the wind is at a ϕ=39.0° angle to the original direction of motion, measured counterclockwise from the easterly direction. If the magnitude of the acceleration is 0.500 m/s2 , find the displacement vector ?⃗ r→ and the angle of the displacement ?1θ1 . Enter the components of the vector, ??rx and ??ry , and the angle. Assume the time interval is still 3.10 s . ?⃗ =???̂ +???̂

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 3400g during a time interval of 6.50 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?
A particle leaves the origin going 1.7 m/s in the +x direction. At all times it experiences a constant acceleration of 5.34 m/s2 in the -x direction. What will be the particle's speed when it returns to the origin?
