Squids can move through the waterusing a form of jet propulsion. Suppose a squid jets forward fromrest with constant acceleration for 0.170 s, moving through a distance of 0.179 m. The squid then turns off its jets and coasts to restwith constant acceleration. The total time for this motion (fromrest to rest) is 0.400 s, and the total distance covered is 0.421 m.What is the magnitude of the squid’s acceleration during (a) thetime it is jetting and (b) the time it coasts to a stop?

Most important in an investigation of an airplane crash by the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board is the data stored on the airplane’s flight-data recorder, commonly called the “black box” in spite of its orange coloring and reflective tape.The recorder is engineered to withstand a crash with an average deceleration of magnitude 3450 g during a time interval of 6.49 ms. In such a crash, if the recorder and airplane have zero speed at the end of that time interval, what is their speed at the beginning of the interval?
