Two cars start off the line at the same time, but car A has half the acceleration as car B. If after some time, Car A travels a given distance, how many times farther will car B travel? (Hint - if necessary, come up with arbitrary starting numbers that meet the stated requirements, and compare the results)

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.
Suppose a car merges into freeway traffic on a 200 - m - long ramp. If its initial velocity is Om / s and it accelerates at 2.00 m / s2, how long does it take the car to travel the 200 m up
An experimental rocket car starting from rest reaches a speed of after a straight 400-m run on a level salt flat. Assuming that acceleration is constant, (a) what was the time of the run, and (b) what is the magnitude of the acceleration?
Suppose a car merges into freeway traffic on a 200 m long ramp. If its initial velocity is 10.0 m/s and it accelerates at 2.00 m/s2, how long does it take the car to travel the 200 m up the ramp (in s)?

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 ball is thrown straight up. It passes a 2.00-m-highwindow 7.50 m off the ground on its path up and takes 0.312s to go past the window. What was the ball’s initial velocity?Hint: First consider only the distance along the window, andsolve for the ball's velocity at the bottom of the window. Next,consider only the distance from the ground to the bottom ofthe window, and solve for the initial velocity using the velocityat the bottom of the window as the final velocity.

On your way back from the lake, you’re worst friend is driving and trying to post some stupid selfies toInstagram. Just then, you look up to see a train approaching the crossing near the Roadhouse Grilltravelling at 30 m/s, 60 m from the train crossing. You’re traveling 20 m/s at a distance of 45 m away andyour “friend” decides (foolishly) to punch it and try to beat the train. If his reaction time is half a second,what minimum acceleration does the car need to avoid certain calamity? [4.4 m/s2]
Two motor vehicles, BMW and Ducati, are driving at SLEX southbound lane. At 9:00:00 am they are 100 meters apart and both having a velocity of 100 km/hr with BMW on the lead. The BMW suddenly decelerates at a constant rate of 5m/s while the Ducati retains its velocity. How many seconds after 9:00 am will the Ducati start to overtake the BMW? Express your answer in unit of second. How much distance has the BMW travelled from 9:00 am to the moment the Ducati starts to overtake? Express your answer in unit of meter.
