The citizen leaves a city at 3:00 p.m. It travels at 36.0 m / s when the engine of its car stops. During the next twelve seconds, the car slows down and its average acceleration is a1. Over the next six seconds, the car slows down even further, and its average acceleration is a2. The speed of the car is 28.0 m / s. The ratio of the average acceleration values is a1 / a2 = 1.50. (a) Find the speed of the car at the end of the initial twelve second interval. (b) Calculate the total distance traveled by the car before stopping.
Alcohol consumption slows people's reaction times. In a controlled government test, it takes a certain driver t1=0.31 s to hit the brakes in a crisis when unimpaired and t2=0.93 s when drunk. If the car is initially traveling at v=89 km/h, what additional distance Δx does the car travel before the brakes are applied when the person is drunk than it travels when the person is sober? Δx= ?
An AUS student drives from home to attend her 9 am class. She drives east for 15 minutes at 80 km/h and noted that she had a flat tire. She stops for 45 minutes replacing the flat tire with the spare tire. She then continues her journey eastward traveling another 37 km for 18 minutes to reach the campus. Her average velocity during the entire period is approximatly. a ) 64 km/h b ) 44 km/h c ) 39 km/h d) 6 km/h
A cheetah can reach the top speed of 114 km/h. A cheetah starts from rest and runs 48 m in a straight line, reaching a final speed of 94 km/h. 1. what's the average acceleration during sprint (m/s^2) 2. find displacment at t=3.0 s assuming constant acceleration throughout sprint
The average speed of a vehicle on a stretch of Route 134 between 6 A.M. and 10 A.M. on a typical weekday is approximated by the function f(t) = 30t − 60√t + 70 (0 ≤ t ≤ 4) where f (t) is measured in miles per hour, and t is measured in hours, with t = 0 corresponding to 6 A.M. At what time of the morning commute is the traffic moving at the slowest rate? _ A.M. What is the average speed of a vehicle at that time? _ mph
A European sports car dealer claims that his product will accelerate at a constant rate from rest to a speed of 100 km/h in 6.00 s. What distance will the sports car travel during the 6.00-s acceleration period? (Hint: First convert speed to m/s.)
You normally drive on the freeway between Tayasan and Bayawan City at an average speed of 105 km/h, and the trip takes 2 h and 20 min.

Pedro is driving a motorcycle along Espana boulevard. His position (in meters) at any given time is given by x(t) = 1.124t2 + 6.022. Pedro's initial position is ____ m. His position at ten seconds is ____ m. His speed at ten seconds is ____ m/s. His acceleration at ten seconds is ____ m/s2. Marites is also driving her motorcycle along Espana. Her position function is of the form . What is the coefficient if her acceleration at ten seconds is 2.04 m/s2? C = ____ m/s4
Colonel John P. Stapp, USAF, participated in studying whether a jet pilot could survive emergency ejection. On March 19, 1954, he rode a rocket-propelled sled that moved down a track at a speed of 632 mi/h. He and the sled were safely brought to rest in 1.40 s. (a) Determine the negative acceleration he experienced (in m/s2). answer: -202m/s^2 (b) Determine the distance he traveled during this negative acceleration (in m). answer: 198 m (c) What If? Col. Stapp was able to walk away from this experiment. If the human body can survive a negative acceleration five times that experienced by Col. Stapp, what minimum stopping time (in s) would this correspond to in the 1954 experiment? ______________s
The cheetah can reach a top speed of 114 km/h (71 mi/h).While chasing its prey in a short sprint, a cheetah starts fromrest and runs 45 m in a straight line, reaching a final speed of 72km/h. (a) Determine the cheetah’s average acceleration duringthe short sprint, and (b) find its displacement at t = 3.5 s.
