During a test a rocket travels upward at 180.4 ft/s and when it is 3200 cm from the ground its engine fails. Determine the maximum height (in m) reached by the rocket and its speed (in m/s) just before it hits the ground. Use the constant acceleration due to gravity and neglect the effect of air resistance.

Acceleration is the change in velocity over time. Given this information, is acceleration a vector or a scalar quantity? Explain.
kinematics A truck traveling at a constant velocity of 45 m/s passes a police car hidden behind a billboard. One second after the speeding truck passes the billboard, the police car sets out from the billboard to catch it, accelerating at a constant rate of 3 m/s˄2. How long (in seconds) does it take the police car to overtake the truck?
A jeepney driver is driving at a velocity of 72 km/h. A dog 50 m away suddenly crosses the road and the driver immediately steps on the brake. He stops the jeepney at exactly 4s. What is the jeepney’s acceleration? How far does the jeepney go before coming to a stop? Does the jeepney hit the dog? Explain your answer.
Amtrak's 20th-Century Limited is en route from Chicago to New York at 120 km/h when the engineer spots a cow on the track. The train brakes to a halt in 1.5 min , stopping just in front of the cow. What is the magnitude of the train's acceleration?
5. Can an object be moving toward the right and the acceleration be pointed toward the left? Explain using an example. 6. A person from rest accelerates at 1m/s2 for 5 seconds. What is the person's velocity at the end of the five seconds? 7. If a car going at 10m/s decelerates (negative acceleration) at -2m/s2, how long will it take for it to come to a stop (0m/s)? 8. A plane is travelling down the tarmac after having landed. Describe its displacement, velocity and acceleration as it moves down the tarmac.
kinematics A hot-air balloon is ascending at the rate of 12 m/s and is 80 m above the ground when a package is dropped over the side. How long (in seconds) does the package take to reach the ground?
Superman is standing 176m horizontally away from Lois lane. A villain drops a rock from 4.00 m directly above Lois. If superman is to intervene and catch the rock just before it hits Lois, what should be his minimum constant acceleration? If the acceleration is toward Lois, enter a positive value. If the acceleration is away from Lois, enter a negative value. How fast will Superman be travelling when he reaches Lois?

TOPIC: KINEMATICS OF PARTICLE Jammy is running at 5m/s to catch the Robert’s bus, which is stopped to a nearby bus stop. When Jammy is still 40 meters away from the bus, the bus is already moving with a constant acceleration of 0.170 m/s^2. DETERMINE THE TIME AND DISTANCE DOES JAMMY HAVE TO RUN BEFORE SHE CAN OVERTAKE THE BUS. DETERMINE ALSO AT THE INSTANT SHE REACHES THE BUS, HOW FAST IS THE BUS MOVING?
I need help. Please explain the concept and solution too, thank you! Superman kicked the ball at an angle of 35°. It is intended that the ball lands in the back of a moving truck which has a trunk of length 2.5 m. If the initial horizontal distance from the back of the truck to the ball, at the instant of the kick, is 5 m, and the truck moves directly away from the ball at velocity of 9 m/s, what is the maximum and minimum velocity so that the ball lands in the trunk? Assume that the initial height of the ball is equal to the height of the ball at the instant it begins to enter the trunk.
