Transcribed Image Text:A car initially going 68 ft/sec brakes at
Q1)
a constant rate (constant negative acceleration),
coming to a stop in 7 seconds.
Graph the velocity for t=0t=0 to t=7t=7. How far
does the car travel before stopping?
distance = -687 (include units)
How far does the car travel before stopping if its
initial velocity is doubled, but it brakes at the same
constant rate?
distance = 223.59 (include units)

- A roly-poly bug moves on the x axis. The bug has a variable velocity which is denoted by 2 v = t² - 2.50t.t is time in seconds and v is meters per second. The origin of the roly-poly bug is at t=0. Your job is to figure out the following after 3s have passed. Be sure to use the correct amount of sig figs! a) Velocity of the bug b) The bugs acceleration c) The bugs position THIS IS How I ROLLarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements are true regarding velocity-time graphs?I. The slope of a velocity-time graph is acceleration. II. The graph has a slope of zero if the object is at rest. III. A line with negative slope indicates that the object is slowing down.arrow_forwardPlease help! Required information: A cheetah can accelerate from rest to 52.9 m/s in 2.00 s. Assume that the acceleration is constant over the time interval. a) What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the cheetah? b) What is the distance traveled by the cheetah in these 2.00 s? c) A runner can accelerate from rest to 7.30 m/s in the same time, 2.00 s. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the runner? d) A runner can accelerate from rest to 7.30 m/s in the same time, 2.00 s. By what factor is the cheetah’s average acceleration magnitude greater than that of the runner?arrow_forward
- A car goes at 60 mph for 2 hours from point O and then it takes 3 hours to get back to point O. a) Find the average velocity for the entire trip. b) Find the average velocity for the first 3 hours. c) Find the average speed for the whole trip.arrow_forwardS-1 pt S-1 pt 1. Jason is racing his dirt bike and comes out of a turn into a long straightaway going a velocity of 15m/s and accelerates at a rate of 2m/s^2. Jason accelerates for 6 seconds. How much distance does Jason cover in that time period? G-Given (what are the givens in the problem) * v-15m/sarrow_forward22. A tennis ball travels down a ramp onto a table and at the end of the ramp has a velocity of .75 m/s. The ball is released from rest at the top of the ramp and travels 1.2 meters to the bottom. What is the acceleration as the ball travels down the ramp? Next create a velocity vs. time graph below taking care to label units and numbers properly. Give the equation for the graph in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b).arrow_forward
- You are driving at night on a straight path at 70MPH. Suddenly, a dog appears in your headlights 35 meters away. You immediatley apply the brakes which causes your car to slow down at a constant rate, coming to rest just before making contact with the dog. 1 mile = 1.61 km 1) How long did it take for your car to make a complete stop? 2) If you were initially driving in the 'positive x' direction, then what was your acceleration during the braking maneuver, in vector form and in m/s2?arrow_forwardhelp please!arrow_forward
