A driver is traveling 18.0 m/s when she sees a red light ahead. Her car is capable of decelerating at a rate of 3.65m / (s ^ 2) If it takes her 0.380 s to get the brakes on and she is 24.0 m from the intersection when she sees the light, will she be able to stop in time? How far from the beginning of the intersection will she be, and in which direction?
You drive a beat-up pickup truck down a straight road for 5.2 mi at 43 mi/h, at which point yourun out of fuel. You walk 1.2 mi farther, to the nearest gas station, in 27 min (= 0.450 h). What isyour average velocity from the time you started your truck to the time that you arrived at thestation?
Mikail is sailing a boat in the local lake. Starting from rest near the shore, he accelerates uniformly at 0.3101 m/s/s. After 22 seconds, how far is he from the shore?
My pug/bulldog mix, Georgia, who is blind and deaf, gets a whiff of her dinner. As soon as it registers to her that it's dinnertime, she runs 4.12 meters from the middle of our living room to our kitchen, where she is satiated with her grub. If it takes her 4.45 s to get to the kitchen, what was her speed in m/s to the nearest hundredth?
In 1865, Jules Verne proposed sending men to the Moon by firing a space capsule from a 220-m-long cannon with final speed of 10.97 km/s. What would have been the unrealistically large acceleration experienced by the space travelers during their launch? (A human can stand an acceleration of 15g for a short time.)
Professional baseball player Nolan Ryan could pitch a baseball at approximately 160.0 km/h. At that average velocity, how long did it take a ball thrown by Ryan to reach home plate, which is 18.4 m from the pitcher’s mound? Compare this with the average reaction time of a human to a visual stimulus, which is 0.25 s.
An egg drops from a second-story window, taking 1.24s to fall and reaching a speed of 12.2m/s just before hitting the ground. On contact with the ground, the egg stops completely in 0.131s. Calculate the average magnitude of its acceleration while falling, and then the average magnitude of its acceleration while stopping.
A blue car is moving at a constant speed of 70 m/s when it passes signage with a police officer beside it. Due to the car's over speeding, the police officer chases it with a constant acceleration of 4 m/s2, one second after the car passes the signage. How long does it the police officer to overtake the truck?
A car can be braked to a stop from the autobahn-likespeed of 200 km/h in 170 m. Assuming the acceleration is constant,find its magnitude in (a) SI units and (b) in terms of g. (c) How muchtime Tb is required for the braking? Your reaction time Tr is the timeyou require to perceive an emergency, move your foot to the brake,and begin the braking. If Tr = 400 ms, then (d) what is Tb in terms ofTr, and (e) is most of the full time required to stop spent in reactingor braking? Dark sunglasses delay the visual signals sent from theeyes to the visual cortex in the brain, increasing Tr. (f) In the extremecase in which Tr is increased by 100 ms, how much farther doesthe car travel during your reaction time?
A particle is observed to start at rest and accelerates at a 30 + 2t, where t is in seconds, until its velocity is 398.20 m/s. It then hits an obstruction and the acceleration is given by a = -0.003v², until the velocity decreases to 98.20 m/s. Determine the total distance the particle travelled, and the total time of travel.
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 model plane flew 100 m in 25.0 s followed by another 240 m in an additional 60.0 s, whereupon it crashed into the ground. How far did it’s travel in total? How long was it in the air? What was its average speed?
