- While driving at 45.0 mi/hr (20.1 m/s) on a straight portion of Route 9 West, Randi notices that the traffic light has turned red at the intersection directly ahead. Randi applies his brakes, slows his car down at a steady rate, and brings his car to rest, while traveling the 60.0 m distance to the stop line (at the red light). 21. While he is slowing down, the acceleration of Randi's car has a magnitude of A. 6.73 m, В. 16.9 m 2. 169 m/: А. С. 33,8 т D. 9.80 m E. 3.37 m / 22.

- You are driving along the highway at a steady speed of 90 km/h when another car decides to pass you. At the moment when the front of his car is exactly even with the front of your car, and you turn your head to smile at him, do the two cars have equal velocities? Draw a position graph to describe the motion of two cars.arrow_forwardFrom the top of a cliff, a person throws a stone straight downward. The initial speed of the stone just after leaving the person's hand is 9.7 m/s. (a) What is the acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the stone while it moves downward, after leaving the person's hand? magnitude m/s2arrow_forwardA helicopter carrying Dr. Evil takes off with a constant upward acceleration of 7.0 m/s2m/s2. Secret agent Austin Powers jumps on just as the helicopter lifts off the ground. After the two men struggle for 11.0 ss, Powers shuts off the engine and steps out of the helicopter. Assume that the helicopter is in free fall after its engine is shut off, and ignore the effects of air resistance. What is the maximum height above ground reached by the helicopter? Powers deploys a jet pack strapped on his back 7.0 ss after leaving the helicopter, and then he has a constant downward acceleration with magnitude 3.0 m/s2m/s2. How far is Powers above the ground when the helicopter crashes into the ground?arrow_forward
