A train is traveling down a straight track at 20 m/s when the engineer applies the brakes, resulting in an acceleration of −1.0 m/s2 as long as the train is in motion. How far does the train move during a 40-s time interval starting at the instant the brakes are applied?
At the moment of departure of a train, the signalman is standing next to the first wagon, which moves past him in 5.3 s. For how long will the twelfth wagon be moving past him? The acceleration of the train is constant.
The speed of a bullet is measured to be 640 m/s as the bullet emerges from a barrel of length 1.20 m.Assuming constant acceleration, find the time that the bullet spends in the barrel after it is fired.
