- Problem 4: In a biathalon race you first ride a bicycle at an average speed of 19.8 mi/h for 19 miles, then you must run for another 3.5 miles. With what average speed, in miles per hour, must you run if your average speed for the entire race is to be 14.2 mi/h? Numeric : A numeric value is expected and not an expression.

The proton has an initial speed of 2.00 x 107 m/s and travels 4.1 cm. (a) What is its speed? (Give your answer to at least four significant figures.) m/sarrow_forwardA motor car is moving with initial velocity in the x-direction at 30 m/s. After 30 s, the car applies its brakes steadily to slow down the car to a velocity of 10 m/s in 12 s. The continues onward for 10 s more. How far in m did the car travel for the full 52 s? Report your answer to three sig figs, you don't need to write "m". HINT: Break up the problem into three stages - 30s, 12s, and the final 10s. During the 12 s, you'll need the acceleration.arrow_forward
- A pilot flies in a straight path for 1 h 30 min. She then makes a course correction, heading 10 degrees to the right of her original course, and flies 2 h in the new direction. If she maintains a constant speed of 640 mi/h, how far is she from her starting position?Your answer is______mi;arrow_forwardAlice is riding a bike at 12 mph, but decides to sprint. She takes 0.7 s to accelerate to 19 mph. At constant acceleration, calculate her acceleration, a/(ft/s2). (Here are possibly convenient conversion aids: 60 mph = 1 mi/min = 88 ft/s. This equation is exact. You may wish to verify the equation. One mile = 60*88 ft, and one hour = 60*60 s.)arrow_forwardThe cheetah is considered the fastest running animal in the world. Cheetahs can accelerate to a speed of 21.8 m/s in 2.50 s and can continue to accelerate to reach a top speed of 28.8 m/s. Assume the acceleration is constant until the top speed is reached and is zero thereafter. 1) Express the cheetah's top speed in mi/h. (Express your answer to three significant figures.) answer: 64.2 2) Starting from a crouched position, how long does it take a cheetah to reach its top speed? (Express your answer to three significant figures.) answer: 3.31 3) How far does it travel in that time? (Express your answer to three significant figures.) answer: 47.5 4) If a cheetah sees a rabbit 120 m away, how long will it take to reach the rabbit, assuming the rabbit does not move?
