Problem 7 A "moving sidewalk" in an airport terminal building moves at a speed of 1.3 m/s and is of length 37.0 m. A woman steps on at one end and walks at a speed 1.8 m/s relative to the moving sidewalk. a) How much time does she require to walk from one end to the other if she walks in the same direction the sidewalk is moving? b) How much time does she require to walk from one end to the other if she walks opposite to the direction the sidewalk is moving?

A motorist drives along a straight road at a constant speed of 15.0 m/s. Just as she passes a parked motorcycle police officer, the officer starts to accelerate at 2.00 m/s2 to overtake her. Assuming that the officer maintains this acceleration, (a) determine the time interval required for the police officer to reach the motorist. Find (b) the speed and (c) the total displacement of the officer as he overtakes the motorist.

A person takes a trip, driving with a constant speed of 89.5 km/h, except for a 22.0-min rest stop. If the persons average speed is 77.8 km/h, (a) how much time is spent on the trip and (b) how far does the person travel?
Kathy tests her new sports car by racing with Sian, an experienced racer. Both start from rest, but Kathy leaves the starting line 1.00 s after Stan does. Stan moves with a constant acceleration of 3.50 m/s2, while Kathy maintains an acceleration of 4.90 m/s2. Find (a) the time at which Kathy overtakes Stan, (b) the distance she travels before she catches him, and (c) the speeds of both cars at the instant Kathy overtakes Stan.
3.) A PARTICLE IS MOVING ALONG A HORIZONTAL LINE ACCORDING TO THE GIVEN EQUATION.The Equation is S = t^3 - 9t^2 + 15t ; t>=0.where (s) meters is the directed distance of the particle from the originat (t) seconds. where (v) meters per second is the instantaneous acceleration of the particle. 1.

MAKE A TABLE THAT GIVES A Description of THE POSITION AND MOTION of the particle, include in the table the intervals of time when the PARTICLE IS MOVING TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT include in the table when the VELOCITY IS INCREASING AND DECREASING include in the table when the SPEED IS INCREASING AND DECREASING include in the table the POSITION OF THE PARTICLE with respect to the origin during these intervals of time. and Show the BEHAVIOR OF THE MOTION
3. A building is 46.0 m tall. A jealous boyfriend wishes to drop a tomato from the top of the building onto the head of his girlfriend’s suitor, who is 1.80 m and walking alongside the building at a constant speed of 1.20 m/s. How many meters should the suitor be from the position below the tomato when it is dropped? With complete solution
4. At 12:00 noon, an arctic explorer starts heading back to his base camp located 5.15 km due north, when a snowstorm suddenly rolls in. Due to poor visibility, he ends up walking 6.22 km at 15.0o east of north until the storm breaks. a) After the storm breaks, how far and in what direction must he walk to get back to his camp? b) If he walks at a constant speed and gets back to his camp at 2:30 PM, at what time (to the nearest minute) did the storm break?
Hi I am in physics 1 and I need help with this problem. It saids a boy runs in an open field. He runs 233m due north in 77 seconds, turns 90 degrees to his left and runs 178m in 93 seconds. Sketch a map of his motion and find the following quantities of his motion during this period from starting time to final time a) Map of his motion b) The total distance he runs (233m + 178m= 411m) c) The displacement from starting position to final position. What I have thus far is I got c=sqrt (233)^2+(178)^2=293m. Would I subtract this number from the total distance? Please includes detailed steps of how to solve this
