For a standard production car, the highest road-tested acceleration ever reported occurred in 2015, when a Porsche 918 Spyder went from zero to 26.8 m/sec (60 mi/hr – for reference) in 2.1 seconds. Find the magnitude of the car’s acceleration.
An unidentified flying object (UFO) is observed to travel a total distance of 19000 m, starting and ending at rest, over a duration of 4.23 s. Assuming the UFO accelerated at a constant rate to the midpoint of its journey and then decelerated at a constant rate the rest of the way, what was the magnitude of its acceleration? Express your answer in g s , where 1 g = 9.81 m/s^2.
If you divide the total distance traveled on a car trip (as determined by the odometer) by the elapsed time of the trip, are you calculating average speed or magnitude of average velocity? Under what circumstances are these two quantities the same?
In 1992, a 14-kg meteorite struck a car in Peekskill, NY, leaving a 20-cm-deep dent in the trunk. If the meteorite was moving at 500 m/s before striking the car, what was the magnitude of its acceleration while stopping? Find the time it takes for the meteorite to come to a complete stop.

In an 8.00 kmkm race, one runner runs at a steady 11.2 km/hkm/h and another runs at 14.9 km/hkm/h. How far from the finish line is the slower runner when the faster runner finishes the race? Express your answer in kilometers to three significant figures.
A Ferrari sports car can accelerate from rest to 81 km/h (about 60 mi/h) in 1.5 s. What is its average acceleration? Express your answer in 2 decimal places and in (a) km/h and (b) m/s.
Shannon decides to check the accuracy of her speedometer. She adjusts her speed to read exactly 70 mph on her speedometer and holds this steady, measuring the time between successive mile markers separated by exactly 1.00 mile. If she measures a time of 54 s, is her speedometer accurate? If not, is the speed it shows too high or too low?
