A police car is traveling at a velocity of 16.0 m/s due north, when a car zooms by at a constant speed of 50 m/s due north. After a reaction time of 0.700 s the policeman begins to pursue the speeder with an acceleration of 5.00 m/s2. Including the reaction time, how long does it take for the police car to catch up with the speeder?
A Honda Civic travels in a straight line along a road. Its distance x from a stop sign is given as a function of time t by the equation x (t) = at^2 -bt^3, where a = 1.50 m/s^2 and b = 0.05 m/s^3. What is the instantaneous velocity of the car at t = 5 s?
a motorist travelling with a constant velocity of 30m/s passes school- crossing comer, where the speed limit 20km/h. just as the motorist passes, a traffic officer on a motorcycle stopped at the comer starts off in pursuit with a constant acceleration of 2.0m/s^2. how much time elapsed (in seconds) before the officer catches up with the motorist.
Physics question: in a one dimentional motion, if the speed vs. time dependence is v(t)=2At, where v is in m/s and t in seconds, what is the position (x) dependence of that object on time, assuming x=0 when t=0.
A drag car starts from rest and moves down the racetrack with an acceleration defined by a= 50 - 10t, where a and t are in m/s2 and seconds, respectively. After reaching a speed of 125 m/s, a parachute is deployed to help slow down the dragster. Knowing that this deceleration is defined by the relationship a= - 0.02v2 , where v is the velocity in m/s, determine (a) the total time from the beginning of the race until the car slows back down to 10 m/s, (b) the total distance the car travels during this time.
Approximately 0.1% of the bacteria in anadult human’s intestines are Escherichia coli. These bacteria havebeen observed to move with speeds up to 15 mm>s and maximumaccelerations of 166 mm>s2. Suppose an E. coli bacterium in yourintestines starts at rest and accelerates at 156 mm>s2. How much(a) time and (b) distance are required for the bacterium to reach aspeed of 12 mm>s?
One simple model for a person running the 100 m dash is to assume the sprinter runs with constant acceleration until reaching top speed, then maintains that speed through the finish line. If a sprinter reaches his top speed of 11.1 m/s in 2.54 s, what will be his total time?
On a one lane road, a person driving a car at v1 = 76 mi/h suddenly notices a truck d = 1.9 mi in front of him. That truck is moving in the same direction at v2 = 45 mi/h. In order to avoid a collision, the person has to reduce the speed of his car to v2 during time interval Δt. The smallest acceleration required for the car to avoid a collision is a. During this problem, assume the direction of motion of the car is the positive direction.

Suppose that a person unwisely drives 75 mi/h in a zone 55 mi/h and passes a police car going 55 mi/h in the same direction. If the police officers begin constant acceleration at the instant they are passed and increase their velocity to 80 mi/h in 4 s, how long does it take them to be even with the pursued car? Ans. 10s
An initially motionless test car is accelerated uniformly to 135 km/hr in 8.08 seconds before striking a simulated deer. The car is in contact with the faux fawn for seconds, after which the car is measured to be traveling at 87.5 km/hr. What is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the car during the collision?
If a drag racing motorcyclist has an initial speed of 10 m/s, and then he/she accelerates for 15 seconds at 15 m/s2, what is the velocity after 15 seconds? (do not include units in answer)
For the case of freefall, explain how to calculate the total distance traveled and the instantaneous velocity for an object that is dropped from rest by applying the fundamental meaning of acceleration and by using the two equations: Vavg=(vf+vi)/2 and d=vavg*t. Is this method applicable only for the case of freefall and with an initial velocity of zero, or is it always applicable to cases where the acceleration of an object is constant and parallel, or antiparallel, to the direction of motion? Explain.
