If a car were to start at rest and move along a straight road at a constant acceleration reaching a speed of 14 ms-1 in 4 s, the what would be the magnitude of the constant acceleration of the car? And how fast will the car be travelling if it maintains this acceleration over a distance of 140 m from its starting point?
In an historical movie, two knights on horseback start from rest 96.9m apart and ride directly toward each other to do battle. Sir George’s acceleration has a magnitude of 0.213m/s^2, while Sir Alfred’s has a magnitude of 0.267 m/s^2. Relative to Sir Georges starting point, where do the knights collide?
Most important in an investigation of an airplane crash by the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board is the data stored on the airplane’s flight-data recorder, commonly called the “black box” in spite of its orange coloring and reflective tape.The recorder is engineered to withstand a crash with an average deceleration of magnitude 3450 g during a time interval of 6.49 ms. In such a crash, if the recorder and airplane have zero speed at the end of that time interval, what is their speed at the beginning of the interval?
