Two cars are moving in the same direction (the positive direction) on a straight road. The acceleration of each car also points in the positive direction. Car 1 has a greater acceleration than car 2 has. Which one of the following statements is true? The velocity of car 1 is always greater than the velocity of car 2. o In the same time interval,the velocity of car 1 changes by a greater amount than the velocity of car 2 does. The velocity of car 2 is always greater than the velocity of car 1. o In the same time interval,the velocity of car 2 changes by a greater amount than the velocity of car I does.

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 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 steam catapult launches a jet aircraft from the aircraft carrier John C. Stennis, giving it a speed of 175 mi/h in 2.50 s. (a) Find the average acceleration of the plane. (b) Modeling the acceleration as constant, find the distance the plane moves in this time interval.
A person lakes 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?
Two cars A and B are driving on a straight road at constant velocity with a distance of 50m, car A is behind B. If both cars start accelerating at the same time but at different accelerations of 5m/s² and 3m/s² respectively. Find t just when A overtakes B.
Two ducks, Donald and Cassiopeia, are gliding gracefully toward eachother along a pond, in a straight line. Donald is initially moving at v =0.500 m/s, and begins accelerating at 0.100 m/s2 at t = 0 s. Cassiopeiamoves at a constant speed of v = 0.700 m/s. If they are initially separatedby 25.0 m, where will they collide? Take Donald’s initial position as theorigin. How long will it take for them to collide?
At time t=0.00s a car is Traveling along a straight line at a speed of 20m/s with constant acceleration. The carb travels 56.0m during the time interval between t=2.00 and t=4.00s what is the acceleration of the car ?
