You want to visit your friend in Seattle and decide to take the train. Unfortunately, you
are late getting to the train station. You are running as fast as you can, but 30 meters
ahead of you the train begins to pull out. You can run at a maximum speed of 8 m/s
and the train is accelerating at 1 m/s². In 50 meters you will reach a barrier. Can you
catch up to the departing train? Argue why you should or should not jump onto the moving
train?
With FBD and Solution. The answer is in the choices one of those 5 answers is correct
Q11. Polar bears are strong swimmers and can swim as long as 10 hours without rest. If a polar bear swims with an average speed of 2.6 m/s, what is the total distance it can swim in 10.0 hours? Give your answer in km.
