If it takes a bicyclist 20 seconds to reach a speed of10 mph from rest, what is her acceleration? For thenext 10 minutes, she moves at the constant speed of10 mph, and at this time, she applies her brakes, andthe bicycle decelerates to a full stop in 4 seconds. Whatis the total distance traveled by the bicyclist? Determine the average speed of the cyclist during the first20 seconds, 620 seconds, and 624 seconds.
Bacteria move back and f01th by using their flagella (Structures that look like little tails). Speeds of up to 50m/s(50106m/s) have been observed. The total distance traveled by a bacterium is large for its size, while its displacement is small. Why is this?

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?
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?
Rob drove to the nearest hospital with an average speed of v m/s in t seconds. If he drives home on the same path, but with an average speed of 3v m/s, how long is the return trip home in terms of t?
A particle’s velocity along the x-axis is described byv(t) = A t + B t2,where t is in seconds, v is in meters per second, A = 1.06 m/s2, and B = -0.51 m/s3. What is the distance traveled, in meters, by the particle between times t0 = 1.0 s and t1 = 3.0 s?
In World War II, there were several reported cases ofairmen who jumped from their flaming airplanes with noparachute to escape certain death. Some fell about 20,000feet (6000 m), and some of them survived, with few lifethreatening injuries. For these lucky pilots, the tree branchesand snow drifts on the ground allowed their deceleration to berelatively small. If we assume that a pilot’s speed upon impactwas 123 mph (54 m/s), then what was his deceleration?Assume that the trees and snow stopped him over a distanceof 3.0 m.
A three-toed sloth is the slowest moving land mammal. On the ground, the sloth moves at an average speed of 0.037 m/sec, considerably slower than the giant tortoise, which walks at 0.076 m/sec. After 12 minutes (720 seconds) of walking, how much further would the tortoise have gone relative to the sloth?
