Two elevators operating in parallel shafts, approach each other from positions which are 120 m apart. The upper car has a downward acceleration of 0.5 m/s, and the lower car is being accelerated upward 1.0 m/s?. When and where will they pass each other if the lower car starts 1 second after the other? Draw the figure properly. No figure no point.

simple device for measuring yourreaction time. It consists of a cardboard strip marked with a scaleand two large dots. A friend holds the strip vertically, with thumband forefinger at the dot on the right in, being careful not to touch the strip. Your friend releasesthe strip, and you try to pinch it as soon as possible afteryou see it begin to fall.The mark at the place where you pinch thestrip gives your reaction time. (a) How far from the lower dotshould you place the 50.0 ms mark? How much higher shouldyou place the marks for (b) 100, (c) 150, (d) 200, and (e) 250 ms?(For example, should the 100 ms marker be 2 times as far fromthe dot as the 50 ms marker? If so, give an answer of 2 times. Canyou find any pattern in the answers?)

You make a wish and drop a coin into a wishing well.The top of the wishing well is 5.0 m above the water surface. When the coin hits the watersurface, it sinks to the bottom of the well with a constant velocity equal to the velocity withwhich it hit the water. If it takes the coin 3.0 s after it was released to reach the bottom, howdeep is the well?

You have exactly 5 minutes 20 seconds to get to your nextclass on time and that classroom is 448 m east of where youare right now. First you run to your dorm room at anaverage velocity of 5.02 m/s to the south to pick up yourcalculator and your dorm room is 461 m south of where youwere initially. What average velocity (magnitude only) doyou now need to run from your dorm room to yourclassroom to arrive exactly on time? 2.84 m/s 2.01 m/s 5.02 m/s 2.82 m/s
