A police car traveling at 95.0 km/h is traveling west, chasing a motorist traveling at 80.0 km/h. (a) What is the velocity of the motorist relative to the police car? (b) What is the velocity of the police cat relative to the motorist? (c) If they are originally 250 m apart, in what time interval will the police car over take the motorist?
While strolling downtown on a Saturday Afternoon, you stumble across an old car show. As you are walking along an alley toward a main street, you glimpse a particularly stylish Alpha Romeo pass by. Tall buildings on either side of the alley obscure your view, so you see the car only as it passes between the buildings. Thinking back to your physics class, you realize that you can calculate the cars acceleration. You estimate the width of the alleyway between the two buildings to be 4 m. The car was in view for 0.5 s. You also heard the engine rev when the car started from a red light, so you know the Alpha Romeo started from rest 2 s before you first saw it. Find the magnitude of its acceleration.
An electronic line judge camera captures the impact of a 57.0-g tennis ball traveling at 33.0 m/s with the side line of a tennis court (Fig. P2.37). The ball rebounds with a speed of 20.0 m/s and is seen to be in contact with the ground for 4.00 ms. What is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the ball during the time it is in contact with the ground? Assume one-dimensional motion.
Jayvee is travelling on his bicycle in 12.5 m/s and passes by a stationary truck. After Jayvee passesby the car, the car accelerates at 3.6 m/s2. Solve the following problems:a. The time for the bus to reach approximately the same speed as the cyclistb. The time for the bus to catch up with the cyclistC. The distance travelled when they both meet
1. Arthur and Betty start walking toward each other when they are 100. m apart. Arthur has a speed of 3.0 m/s and Betty has a speed of 2.0 m/s. Their dog, Spot, starts by Arthur's side at the same time and runs back and forth between them at 5.0 m/s. By the time Arthur and Betty meet, what distance has Spot run?
4. A car is driving at a speed of 25 m/s on a horizontal road. Determine the minimum distance in which the car will stop in each of the following cases. A. On a rainy day where µs = 0.125. B. On a sunny day where us = 0.650.
1. An object is at x = -10 m moving at a constant velocity of 10 m/s. What would be the position of the body after 10 seconds? 2. Two siblings, Kaeya and Diluc, decided to take a walk around Mondstadt, following its perimeter guarded by walls. For those who haven't seen Mondstadt, you can imagine it as a city of walls with beautiful German architecture. Let's roughly assume that the walls are encircling it in a perfect circle. Both Kaeya and Diluc started at the front of the huge city gate (marked at 0 degrees), and they walk separately, away from each other. Assuming that radius of the circular city of Mondstadt to be 500 m, and the constant walking speed of both siblings to be 0.5 m/s, how long until the siblings achieve the greatest separation distance between them? 3.

6. Superman slams head-on into a train moving at 16 m/s. He brings the train to a stop in an incredible 1/10³s, thereby saving the love of his Kryptonite wife, Lois Lane who was tied to the railroad tracks. Lois was just 10 m down the tracks from the point where superman struck the train. What is the deceleration of the train? a. -16 x 10² m/s² b. -1.6 x 10³ m/s² c. -16 x 104 m/s² d. -1.6 x 104 m/s² 7.

1) A man flies a small airplane from Fargo to Bismarck, North Dakota—a distance of 180 mi. Because he is flying into a head wind, the trip takes him 2 h. On the way back, the wind is still blowing at the same speed, so the return trip takes only 1 h 15 min. What is his speed in still air, and how fast is the wind blowing? a. what is the speed (mph) in still air? b. wind speed (mph)? 2)A boat on a river travels downstream between two points, 60 mi apart, in 1 h. The return trip against the current takes 2 1/2 hours. a. What is the boat's speed (in still water)? b. How fast does the current river flow?

Determine the acceleration of the car , if the car reaches the intersection 10 seconds ahead of the train . b . Determine the velocity of the car at the intersection .
3.) You throw a ball straight up. The ball leaves your hand at a height of 2.00 m above the ground with a speed of 20.0 m/s (~45 mph). Ignore air resistance and use g = 10.0 m/s2 to answer the following questions. You can use a spreadsheet but show your sample calculations. 3a.) Calculate the height, y(t), and velocity, vy(t), at 0.50 second intervals until the ball hits the ground. Show your results in a table and put the units in the column headers: t (s), vy (m/s), y (m). 3b.) Use this data to draw a motion diagram for the ball at 0.50 second intervals. Label the height and the speed at each time interval. Label the origin, starting height, maximum height, and final height. Include the velocity vectors for each time and location of the ball. 3c.) Calculate the time it takes for the ball to hit the ground and the final velocity of the ball just as it hits the ground. Include this velocity vector in your diagram.
