In order to pass a physical education class at a university, a student must run 1.0 mi in 12.6 min. After running for 10 min, she still has 600 yd to go. If her maximum acceleration is 0.15 m/s2, can she make it? (Assume the student runs at a constant speed for the first 10.0 min.) Yes No If the answer is no, determine what acceleration she would need to be successful. (If the answer is yes, enter 0.) m/s2

To pass a physical education class at a university, a student must run 1.0 mi in 12 min. After running for 10 min, she still has 500 yd to go. If her maximum acceleration is 0.15 m/s2, can she make it? If the answer is no, determine what acceleration she would need to be successful.
Traumatic brain injury such as concussion results when the head undergoes a very large acceleration. Generally, an acceleration less than 800 m/s2 lasting for any length of time will not cause injury, whereas an acceleration greater than 1 000 m/s2 lasting tor at least 1 ms will cause injury. Suppose; a small child rolls off a bed that is 0.40 m above the floor. If the floor is hardwood, the childs head is brought to rest in approximately 2.0 min. If the floor is carpeted, this stopping distance is increased to about 1.0 cm. Calculate the magnitude and duration of the deceleration. In both cases, to determine the risk of injury. Assume the child remains horizontal during the fall to the floor. Note that a more complicated fall could result in a head velocity greater or less than the speed you calculate.
Kaleb has decided to forget about flying and buys a boat instead. If his boat increases its speed from 5.0 m/s to 7.5 m/s over a distance of 50.0 m. What is the boat's acceleration? (please hand-write it and make it clear)
