A hockey player is standing on his skates on a frozen pondwhen an opposing player, moving with a uniform speed of 12m/s, skates by with the puck. After 3.0 s, the first player makesup his mind to chase his opponent. If he accelerates uniformlyat 4.0 m/s2, (a) how long does it take him to catch his opponent,and (b) how far has he traveled in that time? (Assumethe player with the puck remains in motion at constant speed.)
You're checking your car's speedometer. With cruise control engaged, the speedometer reads a constant 60mi/h. (a) Using highway mileposts, you clock 4 min,45 s to go 5 m. If the mileposts are accurate, what's the error in your speedometer reading? (b) How much time should you take to cover each mile if your true speed is 65mi/h?

An inquisitive physics student and mountain climber climbs a 51.0-m-high cliff that overhangs a calm pool of water. He throws two stones vertically downward, 1.00 s apart, and observes that they cause a single splash. The first stone has an initial speed of 2.06 m/s. (c) What is the speed of each stone at the instant the two stones hit the water?

A spaceship is travelling at 55 m/s [E74S] when it fires its rockets, which provide an acceleration of 71 m/s2 [N40W] for 18 seconds. What velocity will the spaceship have after firing its rockets?
Just as the traffic light changes to green, a Mustang drives through the intersection at a constant velocity of 14.2 m/s [N]. A Camaro, that was stopped at the light, accelerates from rest at 2.9 m/s2 [N]. How much time passes before the two cars meet again? How far have they travelled?
A runner is moving at 6m/s when they begin to decelerate at 2m/s2 . How far will they travel until they come to a stop? How do I solve this? My professor has it worked to where 6m/s is the final velocity and I don't understand why.
4. At 12:00 noon, an arctic explorer starts heading back to his base camp located 5.15 km due north, when a snowstorm suddenly rolls in. Due to poor visibility, he ends up walking 6.22 km at 15.0o east of north until the storm breaks. a) After the storm breaks, how far and in what direction must he walk to get back to his camp? b) If he walks at a constant speed and gets back to his camp at 2:30 PM, at what time (to the nearest minute) did the storm break?
