A spaceship ferrying workers to Moon Base I takes a straight-line path from the earth to the moon, a distance of 384,000km. Suppose the spaceship starts from rest and accelerates at 20.0 m/s^2 for the first 15.0 min of the trip, and then travels at constant speeduntil the last 15.0 min, when it slows down at a rate of 20.0 m/s^2 , just coming to rest as it reaches the moon. (a) What fraction of the total distance is traveled at constant speed? (b) What total time is required for the trip?

When jumping, a flea accelerates at an astounding 1,000 m/s2 , but over only the very short distance of 0.5 mm. If a flea jumps straight up, and if air resistance is neglected (a rather poor approximation in this situation), how high does the flea go (write your answer in centimeters)? Acceleration due to gravity g= 9.8 m/s2.
