At a given instant in an airplane race, airplane A is flying horizontally in a straight line, and its speed is being increased at a rate of 6. Airplane B is flying at the same altitude as airplane A and, as it rounds a pylon, is following a circular path of 200-m radius. Knowing that at a given instant the speed of B is being decreased at a rate of 2, determine, for the positions shown, (a) the velocity of B relative to A, (b) the acceleration of B relative to A.

Two road rally checkpoints A and B are located on the same highway and are 8 mi apart. The speed limits for the first 5 mi and the last 3 mi are 60 mi/h and 35 mi/h, respectively. Drivers must stop at each checkpoint, and the specified time between points A and B is 10 min 20 s. Knowing that the driver accelerates and decelerates at the same constant rate, determine the magnitude of her acceleration if she travels at the speed limit as much as possible.
An accelerometer record for the motion of a given part of a mechanism is approximated by an arc of a parabola for 0.2 s and a straight line for the next 0.2 s as shown in the figure. Knowing that v = 0 when t= 0 and x= 0.8 ft when t= 0.4 s, (a) construct the v-t curve for 0 ≤ t≤ 0.4 s, (b) determine the position of the part at t= 0.3 s and t= 0.2 s.
Instruments in airplane A indicate that, with respect to the air, the plane is headed 30° north of east with an air speed of 300 mi/h. At the same time, radar on ship B indicates that the relative velocity of the plane with respect to the ship is 280 mi/h in the direction 33° north of east. Knowing that the ship is steaming due south at 12 mi/h, determine (a) the velocity of the airplane, (b) the wind speed and direction.
Car A is traveling at 40 mi/h when it enters a 30 mi/h speed zone. The driver of car A decelerates at a rate of 16 ft/s2 until reaching a speed of 30 mi/h, which she then maintains. When car B , which was initially 60 ft behind car A and traveling at a constant speed of 45 mi/h, enters the speed zone, its driver decelerates at a rate of 20 ft/s2 until reaching a speed of 28 mi/h. Knowing that the driver of car B maintains a speed of 28 mi/h, determine (a) the closest that car B comes to car A, (b) the time at which car A is 70 ft in front of car B.
Three seconds after automobile B passes through the intersection shown, automobile A passes through the same intersection.

Automobile A starts from O and accelerates at the constant rate of 0.9 m/s2. A short time later it is passed by bus B which is traveling in the opposite direction at a constant speed of 6 m/s.

In anticipation of a long 7° upgrade, a bus driver accelerates at a constant rate of 3 ft/s2 while still on a level section of the highway.
