Part C If the captain of ship A fires a missile, counts 10.0 ss on his watch, and then fires a second missile, how much time Δt will the captain of ship B measure to have passed between the firing of the two missiles? Part D The captain of ship B knows that ship A uses 2-m-long missiles. She measures the length of the first missile, once it has finished accelerating, and finds it to be only 0.872 mm long. What is the speed u of the missile, relative to ship B? Use c=3×108m/s=3×108m/s.

Playing jackstone as a kid, you discovered that there is a certain time before the rubber ball falls and you took advantage of this when picking up the stars on the floor. If you threw the ball (GIVEN A)m/s up into the air, how fast will it be moving at a height of (GIVEN B)cm? How much time has elapsed upon reaching this height?
Pep sees Kyle kick the football. 0.36 ?s later, he sees the lineman—who is standing 52 me away from Kyle—raise the offside flag. If Raheem observes these two events taking place at the same location, how fast must he be running?
Playing jackstone as a kid, you discovered that there is a certain time before the rubber ball falls and you took advantage of this when picking up the stars on the floor.

An unmarked police car travelling with the constant speed 90 km/h, is passed by a speeder with an unknown constant speed. Precisely after 1 sec police car accelerates uniformly at 2 m/s2, and overtakes the speeder 7 sec later, what was the speeder’s speed?
The instantaneous speed of a particle moving along one straight line isv(t) = ate−5t, where the speed v is measured in meters per second, the time t is measured in seconds, and the magnitude of the constant a is measured in meters per second squared. What is its maximum speed, expressed as a multiple of a? (Do not include units in your answer.)
You are arguing over a cell phone while trailing an unmarked police car by 25m; both your car and the police car are travelling at 120km/h. Your argument diverts your attention from the police car for 2.0s (long enough for you to look at the phone and yell, “I won’t do that!”). At the beginning of that 2.0s, the police officer begins braking suddenly at 5.05m/s^2. What is the separation between the two cars when your attention finally returns? Suppose that you take another 0.500s to realize your danger and begin braking. If you too brake at 5.05 m/s^2, what is your speed when you hit the police car?
A bomb is designed to explode 2.00 s after it is armed. The bomb is launched from earth and accelerated to an unknown final speed. After reaching its final speed, however, the bomb is observed by people on earth to explode 2.90 s after it is armed. What is the final speed of the bomb just before it explodes?
