Question
A train is traveling down a straight track at 35 m/s when the engineer applies the brakes, resulting in an acceleration of −1.0 m/s2 as long as the train is in motion. How far does the train move during a 70-s time interval starting at the instant the brakes are applied?

- To take off from the ground, an airplane must reach a sufficiently high speed. The velocity required for the takeoff, the takeoff velocity, depends on several factors, including the weight of the aircraft and the wind velocity. A plane accelerates from rest at a constant rate of 5.00 m/s2m/s2 along a runway that is 1800 mm long. Assume that the plane reaches the required takeoff velocity at the end of the runway. What is the time tTOtTO needed to take off? What is the distance d_last traveled by the plane in the last second before taking off?arrow_forwardA rocket-powered sled moves along a track, eventually reaching a top speed of 219 m/s to the east.
