Unit 2 – Distance, Velocity and Acceleration Test Part 2 1. A small plane accelerates from a velocity of 10 m/s to 70 m/s in 15 seconds. Calculate its acceleration. 2. A plane travels 8,500 miles in 16.5 hours. Calculate the average speed of the plane. 3. An elevator is moving with a velocity of 5 m/s. As it approaches a floor, the brakes are applied, and it comes to a rest. If it takes five seconds to stop, what is its acceleration? 4. What is the velocity of a plane that traveled from 562 miles from Detroit to Mackinaw City in 1.36hrs? 5. Using the following position vs time graph, create the corresponding velocity vs time graph.
