A person runs with top velocity of 4.6 m/s to be able to catch a bus, which is stopped at the bus stop. When he is still a distance 39.8 m from the bus, it starts to pull away, moving with a constant acceleration of 0.176 m/s²

Two trains, one training at 72.0km/h and the other at 144km/h, are headed toward one another along a straight, level track. when they are 1100m apart, each engineer sees the other;s train and applies the brakes. This causes each train to have an acceleration against the train direction of motion with the magnitude of 1.00 m/s^2. Calculate the distance required for each train to come to a complete stop and based on this result conclude whether there will be a collision? Calculate the time required for each train to come to a stop.
A rabbit is moving in the positive x - direction at 2.00 m/swhen it spots a predator and accelerates to a velocity of12.0 m/s along the negative y - axis, all in 1.50 s. Determine(a) the x - component and (b) the y - component of the rabbit’sacceleration.
At t = 0 s, a hovercraft is stationary and accelerating at a uniform at a uniform rate of 0.8 m/s^2 east. What is the velocity of the hovercraft and its displacement with respect to its initial position at t = 10 s.
.A truck starts from rest at t = 0 and reaches a final speed v at time t. Which of the following statements is/are true if the acceleration of the of the truck is constant (and nonzero) during this time? The car travels a distance vt. The average speed of the car is v/2. The magnitude of the acceleration of the car is v/t. The velocity of the car remains constant.
When a high-speed passenger train traveling at vP = 160 km/h rounds a bend, the engineer is shocked to see that a locomotive has improperly entered onto the track from a siding and is a distance D = 652 m ahead (see the figure). The locomotive is moving at vL = 30 km/h. The engineer of the passenger train immediately applies the brakes. Assume that an x axis extends in the direction of motion. What must be the constant acceleration along that axis if a collision is to be just avoided?
