A rocket car is traveling at a constant speed of 250 km/h on a salt flat. The driver gives the car a reverse thrust, and the car experiences a continuous and constant deceleration of 8.25 m/s^2. How much time elapses until the car is 175 m from the point where the reverse thrust is applied? Describe the situation for your answer.
For the following scenarios is there an instant when the average velocity for the time interval will equal the instantaneous velocity? a) A hockey puck slides across a frozen pond without slowing down b) a race car takes a lap at a race track at a constant speed c) a ball is thrown directly up, rises to its highest point and then falls back to the same height.
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 3450 g during a time interval of 6.49 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 cyclist is initially at rest at the origin. At t=0 she starts to accelerate at a constant rate, along a straight road reaching a velocity of 4.00 m/s after 12.0 seconds. 12.0 seconds after starting a prairie dog runs across her path and the cyclist hits the brakes, producing a new constant acceleration. 13.0 seconds after starting, the cyclist has a velocity of 1.50 m/s . What is the acceleration, a1a1, of the cyclist in the first part of the motion, between t = 0 and 12s? What is the acceleration of the cyclist, a_2 , in the second part of the motion between t = 12 and 13s? What is her average acceleration in this 13-s interval? What is the position of the cyclist at 13s, x_13?

A car is 126 m from a stop sign and traveling toward the sign at 29 m/s. At this time, the driver suddenly realizes that she must stop the car. If it takes 0.200 s for the driver to apply the brakes, what must be the magnitude of the constant acceleration of the car after the brakes are applied so that the car will come to rest at the stop sign?
