You’re driving your car towards an intersection at a constant speed of 11.0 m/s. A Porsche is stopped behind the line at the red light. At the moment when you are 15.0 m from the line, the light turns green, and the Porsche begins to accelerate from rest at a constant rate of 3.00 m/s2. You continue at the same constant speed. (a) How many seconds after the light turns green do you pass the Porsche? (b) How far (in meters) from the stop line do you pass the Porsche? (c) As the Porsche keeps accelerating, it eventually catches up to you again. How many seconds after the light turns green does it pass you?

A car accelerates in the +x direction from rest with a constant acceleration of a1 = 1.55 m/s2 for t1 = 20 s. At that point the driver notices a tree limb that has fallen on the road and brakes hard for t2 = 5 s until it comes to a stop. How far, in meters, from the original location of the limb will the car be when it stops?
A car is 126 m from a stop sign and traveling toward the sign at 29 m/s. At this time, the driver suddenly realizes that she must stop the car. If it takes 0.200 s for the driver to apply the brakes, what must be the magnitude of the constant acceleration of the car after the brakes are applied so that the car will come to rest at the stop sign?
A blue car is moving at a constant speed of 70 m/s when it passes signage with a police officer beside it. Due to the car's over speeding, the police officer chases it with a constant acceleration of 4 m/s2, one second after the car passes the signage. How long does it the police officer to overtake the truck?
As soon as a traffic light turns green, a car speeds up from rest to 50.00 mi/h with constant acceleration 9.00 mi/h/s. In the adjoining bicycle lane, a cyclist speeds up from rest to 20.0 mi/h with constant acceleration of 13.00 mi/h/s. Each vehicle maintains constant velocity after reaching a cruising speed. For what time interval is the bicycle ahead of the car?
A truck tractor pulls two trailers, one behind the other, at a constant speed of 1.00 102 km/h. It takes 0.600 s for the big rig to completely pass onto a bridge 4.00 102 m long. For what duration of time is all or part of the truck-trailer combination on the bridge?
Car A moves to the right with velocity 12 m/s. As soon as it reachesCar B, Car A accelerates at 3.00 m/s^2 . At the same time, starting from rest, Car B also accelerates at 5.00 m/s^2. How far will Car B have to travel to catch up with Car A?
At the instant the traffic light turns green, a car that has been waiting at an intersection starts ahead with a constant acceleration of 3.20 m/s^2. At the same instant a truck, travelling with a constant speed of 20.0 m/s, overtakes and passes the car. How far (in m) beyond its starting points does the car overtake the truck?
At T=0, one toy car is set rolling on a straight track with an initial position of 0.13m, initial velocity of -0.03m/s, and constant acceleration of 0.022m/s. At the same moment, another toy car is set rolling on an adjacent track with an initial position of 0.095m, an initial velocity of 0.047m/s and constant 0 acceleration. 1. at what time do the cars have equal speeds? 2. At what times (2) do the cars pass each other? 3. What are their locations (2) at that time?
A jet plane comes in for a landing with a speed of 100 m/s, and its acceleration can have a maximum magnitude of 5.00 m/s^2 as it comes to rest, from the instant the plane touches the runway, what is the minimum time interval needed before it can come to rest?
Car A is parked along the northbound lane of a highway, and car B is traveling in the southbound lane at a constant speed of 60 mi/h. At t=0, A starts and accelerates at a constant rate a A , while at t= 5 s, B begins to slow down with a constant deceleration of magnitude a A 6. Knowing that when the cars pass each other x = 294 ft and VA = VB , determine (a) the acceleration aA,(b) when the vehicles pass each other, (c) the distance d between the vehicles at t=0.

A driver, driving at a constant speed of 30m/s in a 50 mph zone, is unaware that he is being observed by an approaching police car (coming toward him from the front). At time t = 0, they are 800m apart and the police car has an approach speed of 40 m/s. When will the police officer catch up with the motorist? a) 80 s b) 68.6 s c) 11.4 s
