Cynthia competes in life competitions. She rides solo on a small sled 3 inches off the ground down icy slopes, turning only by use of her feet and the shifting of her weight on the sled. During the initial stage of one downhill life, Cynthia accelerated from rest at 6.84 m/s/d for 2.39 seconds. Determine the distance she moved during this acceleration phase.

A runner finishing a 1-km runaround an oval track in 30 [s]C. A traveler walking for 30 [min]D. A typhoon going southeast with130 [km/h] wind speed.
Dr. John Paul Stapp was a U.S. Air Force officer who studied the effects of extreme deceleration on the human body. On December 10, 1954, Stapp rode a rocket sled, accelerating from rest to a top speed of 282 m/s (1015 km/h) in 5.00 s, and was brought jarringly back to rest in only 1.40 s!Calculate the magnitude of his average acceleration during the first part of his motion. Express your answer in multiples of g by taking its ratio to 9.80 m/s2. calculate the magnitude his average deceleration during the second part of his motion. Express your answer in multiples of g by taking its ratio to 9.80 m/s2.
The top speed of a Utahraptor is about 9 m/s. How long would it take a Utahraptor to run 1000 m if it accelerates from rest to 9 m/s? Assume acceleration is constant and it reaches its top speed at exactly 1000 m from its starting point. Hint: Look at the kinematic equations
A ball with a mass of 50 g is traveling at 25 m/s bounced off a brick wall and rebounded at 20 m/s. If a high speed camera was able to record the event and that the ball is known to have been in contact with the wall for 3.50 ms, what is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the ball during this time interval?
As a technical engineer in the army, you are part of a team in charge of testing and commissioning a new tank recently purchased by the artillery Field testing has revealed the following information: 1) The tank moves from rest to a speed of 70 ??/ℎ? in 10 seconds. 2) Using the breaking system, the tank is brought to a complete stop from a speed of 70 ??/ℎ? in 5 seconds a) Find the average driving acceleration of the tank. b) Calculate the average breaking acceleration of the tank. c) For parts (a) and b above parts report your answers in US Customary Units (mile/hr) so that the information could be shared with experts from the US.
