A particle journeyed 80 miles between point 1 and point 2 at 40 mi/h and then another 120 miles between point 2 and point 3 at 70 mi/h. How much time did it take the particle to travel from point 1 to point 3?
An engineer is testing how quickly a car accelerates from rest. The velocity V is measured in miles per hour, as a function of time t, in seconds, since the car is at rest. See the table below. What is the slope for the linear function modeling velocity as a function of time, V=, and what would the formula be for the velocity at time 0, V(0) Time (t) Velocity (V) 2.0 28.9 2.5 35.0 3.0 41.1 3.5 47.2
An unidentified flying object (UFO) is observed to travel a total distance of 42000 m, starting and ending at rest, over a duration of 2.07 s. Assuming the UFO accelerated at a constant rate to the midpoint of its journey and then decelerated at a constant rate the rest of the way, what was the magnitude of its acceleration? Express your answer in g s , where 1 g = 9.81 m/s^2. 39,207 g s 19,604 g s 3,997 g s 1,998 g s
A pilot flies in a straight path for 1 hour 45 minutes. She then makes a course correction, heading 30 degrees to the right of her original course, and flies 2 hours 30 minutes in the new direction. If she maintains a constant speed of 340 mi/h, how far is she from her starting position? Give your answer to the nearest mile.
A driver traveling north slows down from 35.4m / s to 0m / s in 8.6 seconds. What is the magnitude of the driver's acceleration? The standard units for acceleration are "meters per second-squared" or "meters per second per second" and it's written as m / (s ^ 2) or m / s / s

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?
