A motoreycle patrolman starts from rest at A two seconds after a car, speed at the constant rate of 120 km/h, passes point A. If the patrolman accelerates at the rate of 6 m/s2 until he reaches his maximum permissible speed of 150 km/h, which he maintains, calculate the distance S from point A to the point at which he overtakes the car. 120 km/h A

Car A is traveling at a constant speed vA = 143 km/h at a location where the speed limit is 100 km/h. The police officer in car P observes this speed via radar. At the moment when A passes P, the police car begins to accelerate at the constant rate of 5.1 m/s2 until a speed of 168 km/h is achieved, and that speed is then maintained. Determine the distance s required for the police officer to overtake car A. Neglect any nonrectilinear motion of P.
As relay runner A enters the 65-ft-long exchange zone with a speed of 30 ft/s, he begins to slow down. He hands the baton to runner B 2.5 s later as they leave the exchange zone with the same velocity. Determine (a) the uniform acceleration of each of the runners, (b) when runner B should begin to run.
A race car enters the circular portion of a track that has a radius of 70 m. When the car enters the curve at point P, it is travelling with a speed of 120 km/h that is increasing at 5 m/s2. Three seconds later, determine the following
A motorcycle starts from rest at t = 0 and travels along a straight road with a constant acceleration of 6 ft/sec2 until it reaches a speed of 50 ft/s and maintains this speed throughout the duration of the motion. Also, when t = 0, a car located 6000 ft away, travels towards the motorcycle at a constant velocity of 30 ft/s. Determine the time at which the two vehicles pass each other,Calculate the distance traveled by the motorcycle the moment that the two vehicles pass each other, Calculate the distance traveled by the car the moment that the two vehicles pass each other.
A helicopter starts from rest at point A and travels along the straight-line path with a constant acceleration a. If the speed v = 33 m/s when the altitude of the helicopter is h = 40 m, determine the values of r˙, r¨, θ˙, and θ¨ as measured by the tracking device at O. At this instant, θ = 34°, and the distance d = 185 m. Neglect the small height of the tracking device above the ground.
The car is traveling at a speed of 58 mi/hr as it approaches point A. Beginning at A, the car decelerates at a constant 6.1 ft/sec2 until it gets to point B, after which its constant rate of decrease of speed is 2.6 ft/sec2 as it rounds the interchange ramp. Determine the magnitude of the total car acceleration (a) just before it gets to B, (b) just after it passes B, and (c) at point C.
Cars A and B approached each other on a straight road from points 460 m apart. A has an initial speed of 70 kph and is decelerating at the rate of 0.40 m/s2. B has an initial speed of 20 kph and is accelerating at the rate of 0.30 m/s2. When will the cars meet and how far will each have traveled? Draw the figure.
A car and a truck are both traveling at the constant speed of 35 mi/h; the car is 40 ft behind the truck. The driver of the car wants to pass the truck, i.e., he wishes to place his car at B , 40 ft in front of the truck, and then resume the speed of 35 mi/h. The maximum acceleration of the car is 5 ft/s2 and the maximum deceleration obtained by applying the brakes is 20 ft/s2. What is the shortest time in which the driver of the car can complete the passing operation if he does not at any time exceed a speed of 50 mi/h? Draw the v-t curve.
Determine the speed (in meters per second) of pulley C; if block A is supposed to travel vertically at a constant rate of 5.61 meters per second by pulling the cord at point B. Instead of using units, identify the direction of movement of pulley C: U for uphill movement, and D for downhill movement.
At the instant shown, car A travels with a speed of 22 m/s , which is decreasing at a constant rate of 2 m/s2 , while car C travels with a speed of 15 m/s , which is increasing at a constant rate of 3 m/s2 . Suppose that r = 250 m and a = 160 m
A steel ball is dropped from a boat so that it strikes the surface of a lake with a speed of 20.45 ft/s. Assuming the ball experiences a downward acceleration of a = 15 - 0.85 v^2 when in the water, determine the velocity of the ball when it strikes the bottom of the lake considering that the height of the water surface to the bottom is 32 ft.

The jet transport B is flying north with a velocity vB = 430 km/h when a smaller aircraft A passes underneath the transport headed in the 56° direction shown. To passengers in B, however, A appears to be flying sideways and moving east. Determine the magnitudes of the actual velocity of A and the velocity which A appears to have relative to B.
