1. A bicyclist is finishing his repair of a flat tire when a friend rides by with a constant speedof 4.0 m/s. Three seconds later the bicyclist hops on his bike and begins to follow thefriend with an initial speed of 10 m/s. Assume the bicyclist continues at a constantspeed of 10 m/s until he catches the friend.a) Calculate the time it takes to catch his friend.b) How fast is he moving when he catches his friend?c) How far did he travel to catch his friend?

The friend is moving at a constant velocity of 4 m/s.So, after 3 seconds,x2 = u2 × t1x2 = 4 × 3x2 =…

1. Hendrix and Tacey were to compete in a race over a course 2km long. Tacey crawls straight and steadily at its maximum speed of 0.4m/s toward the finish line. Hendrix runs at its maximum speed of 10m/s towards the goal for 1.7km and then stops to tease Tacey. How close to the goal can Hendrix let Tacey approach before resuming the race, which Tacey wins in a photo finish? Assume that when moving, both contestants move steadily at their respective maximum speeds.
When Sam drove at 9.5 m/s on university blvd, she passed her friend, Jess who was riding a bike at 5.0m/s. As Sam was passing Jess, she started to slow down while Jess kept her constant speed. So Jess caught up to Sam after 3 seconds. a.) Determine the distance traveled by Jess when she caught up to Sam.

please help with question number one
A motorcycle officer hidden at an intersection observes a car driven by an oblivious driver who ignores a stop sign and continues through the intersection at a constant speed. The police officer takes off in pursuit 2.0s after the car has passed the stop sign. She accelerates at 4.2 m/s^2 until her speed is 110 km/h until she catches the car. The car is 1.4 km from the intersection. a) How long did it take for the officer to catch the car? b) How fast was the car traveling?
1) If you are initially driving at a speed of 30 km/h with a constant acceleration of 2.0 m/s². Determine how much time, in seconds, it will take you to reach a speed of 60 km/h? 2) You've decided to take a walk for 15 minutes. You went 250 m due north and turned towards the east covering another 150 m before you stopped. Compute your average velocity in meters per second, m/s. 3) A car moves with a constant acceleration along a straight line. If after 3.0 seconds its velocity is 10.0 m/s and after 10.0 seconds the velocity is recorded to be 25.0 m/s, then what is its initial speed?
