- A car starts from 2.00 m/s and accelerates at 4.00 m/s2 for 6.0 s, it coasts for 5.00 s, and then slows down at a rate of 2.00 m/s2to a stop. How far has it traveled, in meters? Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.arrow_forwardYou drive West 30.0 km at 85 km/h and then drive East another 60.0 km at 95 km/h.

Initially, the car and the motorcycle are both traveling at the same speed of 23.0 m/s, and the distance between them is 55.0 m. After t₁ = 3.00 s, the motorcycle starts to accelerate at a rate of 7.00 m/s². The motorcycle catches up with the car at some time t2.

- 1) A race car travels around a circular race track for which the start line and finish line are at the same location. If the race is 888km long and the radius of the track is 1.414km, how many times did the car go around the track? The race takes 2 hours and 45 minutes, what is the race car’s average velocity (in m/s) over the entire race? What is the race car’s average speed (in m/s) over the entire race?arrow_forwardAn object is moving to the right with a constant speed of 21 m/s for 5.0 s. What is the acceleration of the object, in m/s²? Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.arrow_forward5. Your motion along the x-axis begins at rest and at x= 0. The motion consists of acceleration at 2.00 m/s2for 10.0 s, a time period of 6.00 seconds with no acceleration, and then deceleration at -1.00 m/s2for 20.0 s resulting in a final speed of zero. The total distance traveled is 420 m. What is the average speed during this motion? Give answer to 3 significant figures. Help solve this problem, thanks!arrow_forward
- A motorcycle officer hidden at an intersection observes a car driven by an oblivious driver who ignores a stop sign and continues through the intersection at a constant speed. The police officer takes off in pursuit 2.0s after the car has passed the stop sign. She accelerates at 4.2 m/s^2 until her speed is 110 km/h until she catches the car. The car is 1.4 km from the intersection. a) How long did it take for the officer to catch the car? b) How fast was the car traveling?arrow_forwardYou get in your car and drive north, accelerating up to 60mph. Draw your velocity vector and acceleration vector some time during your acceleration. How would these change if you encountered traffic and started to brake?arrow_forward
