A record of fravel along a straight path is as follows: Segment 1: Start from rest with a constant acceleration of 2.77 m/s² for 15.0 s Segment 2: Maintain a constant velocity for the next 2.05 min Segment 3: Apply a constant negative acceleration of 29.47 m/s² for 4.39 s. i. What was the total displacement for the trip? ii. What were the average speeds for segments 1, 2 and 3 of the trip, as well as for the complete trip?

A car starts from rest and accelerates at a constant 10 m/s2 during aquarter-mile (402 m) race. How fast is the car going at the finish line? I know the answer to this problem is 90 m/s, but I don't know how the book i found it in came to this answer. How am I supposed to solve this problem without knowing either final velocity or time?
A honda civic is driven at 20 m/s for 12 mins, then 40 m/s for 20 min, and finally at 50 m/s for 8 min. a.) calculate the average speed over the interval. b.) How fast must the honda civic move in the last 8 mins of travel to obtain an average spee of 55 m/s?
here is my problem, I need help: One simple model for a person running the 100 mm dash is to assume the sprinter runs with constant acceleration until reaching top speed, then maintains that speed through the finish line. If a sprinter reaches his top speed of 11.1 m/sm/s in 2.64 ss , what will be his total time? Express your answer in seconds.
Hi I am in phyiscs I and it has the problem a runner ran the marathon (approx. 26.1) in 2 hours and 57 min. What was the average speed of the runner in m/s? I understand that I would have to divide the total distance by the total time, but I'm not sure how they changed the miles to meters. Please break it down so I can understand. I tried to solve it how you guys did it but I keep getting another answer. Thank you!
A man runs at a constant 4m/s for 40s and then runs @ 8m/s back to his starting position. A. Total time of run ? B. Total distance covered? C. Avg speed D. Displacement at end of trip ? E. Avg. Velocity and direction if any ? How do you solve this ? Thank you
You drive a beat-up pickup truck along a straight road for 8.4 km at 70 km/h, at which point the truck runs out of gasoline and stops. Over the next 30 min, you walk another 2.0 km farther along the road to a gasoline station. (a) What is your overall displacement from the beginning of your drive to your arrival at the station?
A pedestrian is running at his maximum speed of 6.0 m/s to catch a bus stopped at a traffic light. When he is 15 m from the bus, the light changes and the bus accelerates uniformly at 1.00 m/s2. Does he make it to the bus? If so, how far does he have to run in order to catch it? If not, how close does he get? Use sketches on velocity vs time and acceleration vs time graphs to make your case.
Now let’s apply our definition of average velocity to a swimming competition. During one heat of a swim meet, a swimmer performs the crawl stroke in a pool 50.0 mm long, as shown in (Figure 1). She swims a length at racing speed, taking 24.0 ss to cover the length of the pool. She then takes twice that time to swim casually back to her starting point. Find (a) her average velocity for each length and (b) her average velocity for the entire swim. c) If the swimmer could cross a 15 kmkm channel maintaining the same average velocity as for the first 50 mm in the pool, how long would it take?
Hi I am in physics 1 and I need help with this problem. It saids a boy runs in an open field. He runs 233m due north in 77 seconds, turns 90 degrees to his left and runs 178m in 93 seconds. Sketch a map of his motion and find the following quantities of his motion during this period from starting time to final time a) Map of his motion b) The total distance he runs (233m + 178m= 411m) c) The displacement from starting position to final position. What I have thus far is I got c=sqrt (233)^2+(178)^2=293m. Would I subtract this number from the total distance? Please includes detailed steps of how to solve this

In 1967, New Zealander Burt Munro set the world record for an Indian motorcycle, on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, with a maximum speed of 183.58 mi/h. The one‐way course was 5.00 mi long. Acceleration rates are often described by the time it takes to reach 60.0 mi/h from rest. If this time was 4.00 s, and Burt accelerated at this rate until he reached his maximum speed, a. how long did it take Burt to complete the course? b. Sketch position vs time, velocity vs. time, and acceleration vs. time graphs for the race.
