A distracted driver in a residential neighborhood is travelling at 25 miles per hour. The driver takes what they believe to be a brief 1 second look at a text that they have just received on a cell phone. In just one second, how far ( in feet) will the car travel if the driver fails to hit the breaks when a child and dog dart in front of the car.

Albatrosses are seabirds that spend most of their lives flying over the ocean looking for food. With a stiff tailwind, an albatross can fly at high speeds. Satellite data on one particularly speedy albatross showed it 60 miles east of its roost at 3:00 pm and then, at 3:15 pm, 80 miles east of its roost. What was its velocity?

You are arguing over a cell phone while trailing an unmarked police car by 27.0 m. Both your car and the police car are traveling at 100 km/h. Your argument diverts your attention from the police car for 2.30 s (long enough for you to look at the phone and yell, "I won't do that!"). At the beginning of that 2.30 s, the police officer begins emergency braking at 5.00 m/s². (a) What is the separation between the two cars when your attention finally returns? m (b) Suppose that you take another 0.400 s to realize your danger and begin braking. If you too brake at 5.00 m/s², what is your speed when you hit the police car? km/h

The other day, while riding my bike, I was forced to stop quickly to avoid a squirrel in the middle of the road 60 feet ahead. I decelerated at a constant rate of 15 ft/sec², skidding all the way. One second into the slide, my trip computer said I was going 27 ft/sec. How far did I skid before stopping? Did I avoid hitting the squirrel? Round to the nearest tenth
