Destiny is eating lunch at her favorite cafe when her friend Jada calls and says she wants to meet her. Jada is calling from a city 55 miles away and wants to meet Destiny somewhere between the two locations. Jada says she will start driving right away, but Destiny needs 10 min to finish her lunch before she can begin driving. Jada plans to drive at 65 mph, whereas Destiny usually averages about 70 mph. Ignore acceleration and assume the highway is a straight line. How many minutes tmeet will Jada be driving before she meets Destiny? tmeet = ? How many miles d will Destiny have traveled when they meet? d=23.33miles

Alex goes cruising on his dirty bike. He rides 700 meters north and 300 meters east. What distance did he cover? What was his displacement?

Julie drives 112 mi to Grandmother's house. On the way to Grandmother's house, Julie drives half the distance at 41 mph and half the distance at 60 mph. On her return trip, she drives half the time at 41 mph and half the time at 60 mph. What is her average speed on the return trip?

On a hot day in the flats, the temperature is 100.9 degrees. A driver finds an empty, flat stretch of desert that is 1575 meters long and decides to push the limits of his car. He finds the car can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (26.8 m/s) in 4.21 s. Now he wants to see how fast the car can go. Assume the car maintains the same average acceleration until it reaches its top speed of 69.1 m/s. (a) How long will it take the car to reach its top speed? (b) How far will the car travel before it reaches its top speed?

You have been hired as a physics professor by some aliens and taken far far away to their ‘planet’. Being curious, you wanted to find out which ‘planet’ you were on. With an alien stopwatch you determined the time for a 2.0 kg alien object released from a height of 2.5 m to hit the ground to be 1.75 s.   1. What is the acceleration due to gravity on the alien ‘planet’?                                                            2. With what speed does the alien 2.0 kg object hit the ground?

At t=0 an object has a velocity of 35 m/s and a steady acceleration of -10 m/s2.   Make a sketch of velocity vs. time for this motion from t=0 to t=5 s. Make a sketch of acceleration vs. time for this motion from t=0 to t=5 s. Does the object change directions between 0 and 6 s?

A car moves in a straight line with constant acceleration. Starting from rest at t=0 it travels 8m in 4s. What is the speed of the car at t=4s? I got 2m/s but I'm not sure that's right, I would love a step by step.

The graph in Figure GP2.92 shows velocity versus time for a ball projected upward along an incline. Take the +x -axis directed upward along the incline. (a) Describe what you would see if you were watching this ball. (b) How far up the ramp does the ball get from its initial position? (c) Graph the acceleration and position versus time for the rolling ball.

A car is traveling at 30.0 m/s when the driver sees a deer in the road. She takes 0.80 s to react, then steps on the brakes and slows at 7.0 m/s2. How far does the car go before it stops?

A racing car is used to test its suspensions and brakes. in a manufacture process. Itis raced and jumped over a ramp. It flies and further on lands at a speed of 44.4m/s. It then slows down at a rate of 15m/s?. How much road is required to bring the car to a complete stop? The car lands 70 meters away from a nearby beach. Will the car run into water?
