A swimmer travels at 0.8 m/s heading south across a small lake. At the same time, a second swimmer heads north from the opposite shore at a speed of 0.4 m/s. How wide is the lake if the two swimmers meet 12 min later?
The driver of a car is initially moving at a constant speed of 70.4 km/h when a traffic light turns red. If a 0.520 s reaction time is required before the brakes can be applied, what is the distance in meters traveled by the car before it begins to slow down?
A Ford Territory and a Montero Sport are traveling in the same direction at 60.0 kph
on a straight highway, parallel to each other, and the Territory is ahead of Montero by 248,90 kph. At
a certain time, Territory decelerates uniformly at 2.50 m/s2, whereas the Montero accelerates
uniformly at 2.0 m/s2. At what distance measured from the initial position of Montero will it overtake
Ford Territory.
