At a football tryout, a player runs a 40-yard dash in t2 = 5.00 seconds. If the reaches his maximum speed at the 15-yard mark L1 with a constant acceleration and then maintains that speed for the remainder of the run, determine his acceleration over the first 15 yards, his maximum speed, and the time duration of the acceleration.
A jet plane comes in for a landing with a speed of 100 m/s, and its acceleration can have a maximum magnitude of 5.00 m/s^2 as it comes to rest, from the instant the plane touches the runway, what is the minimum time interval needed before it can come to rest?
If the car’s speed decreases at a constant rate from 70 mi/hmi/h to 40 mi/hmi/h in 3.0 ss, what is the magnitude of its acceleration, assuming that it continues to move in a straight line? What distance does the car travel during the braking period?
A space shuttle is launched from rest. It takes 8.00 s to reach 158 km/h , and at the end of the first 1.00 min its speed is 1580 km/h . Assuming the acceleration is constant during each time interval (but not necessarily the same in both intervals), what distance does the shuttle travel during the interval from 8.00 s to 1.00 min?
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?
Using SI base units, a particle’s position as a function of time is given by x(t)=(7t3+4t2+6) m. (a) At what time will the particle’s acceleration be zero? (b) Find the speed of the particle at that time.
The acceleration of a particle along a straight line is defined by a=(2t- 9) m/s^2 , where t is in seconds. At t = 0, s = 1 m and v = 10 m/s. When t = 9 s, determine (a) the particle’s position, (b) the total distance traveled, and (c) the velocity.
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 acceleration at t = 2 s? 1.4 m/s^2 2.4 m/s^2 3.5 m/s^2 4.2 m/s^2
An object is subject to a constant acceleration of 4.16 m/s2 in the positive x direction. If it is initially at rest, what is its displacement in the x-direction at t = 8.99 s?
A 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 11.2 m/s in 2.14 s, what will be his total time?
The sport with the fastest moving ball is jai alai, where measured speeds have reached 303 km/h. If a professional jai alai player faces a ball at that speed and involuntarily blinks, he blacks out the scene for 100 ms. How far does the ball move during the blackout?
A Porsche challenges a Honda to a 400 m race. Because the Porsche's acceleration of 3.5m/s23.5 \mathrm { m } / \mathrm { s } ^ { 2 }3.5m/s2 is larger than the Honda's 3.0m/s23.0 \mathrm { m } / \mathrm { s } ^ { 2 }3.0m/s2, the Honda gets a 100-m head start-it is only 300 m from the finish line. Assume, somewhat unrealistically, that both cars can maintain these accelerations the entire distance. Who wins, and by how much time?
