You are a police officer examining the scene of a car crash that claimed the life of someone driving a Tesla. There was a collision involving them and a pickup truck. The truck driver, who survived, said he was travelling North into the intersection and the Tesla was travelling East into the intersection. The truck driver claims that he was not exceeding the speed limit when the accident occurred. You note the posted speed limit was 80 km/h. Like airplanes, Teslas have a black box that records various statistics in the event a collision occurs. After analyzing the data from the black box, you discover the Tesla was driving at a velocity of 69.6 km/h [E] when the collision occurred. You google the mass of both of the vehicles and find the Tesla should be about 2020 kg and the truck should be about 2820 kg. During the collision, the two vehicles crumpled and became entangled, the skid marks revealing that the two vehicles travelled E 68° N after impact. How fast, in km/h, was the truck…
A bunch of keys was thrown directly upward by Macoy, who is looking out of the window, to be caught by Len-Len living on a room right above him. Unfortunately, Len-Len wasn't able to catch the keys and therefore the bunch of keys went straight to the ground. If Macoy gave the keys an upward speed of 3 m/s and the keys reached the ground after Macoy threw the keys upward in 4 seconds, the speed of the keys just before it reached the ground is 36.2 m/s the height of his room from the ground is 66.4 m c. What is the keys' acceleration when it reached its highest point?d. What is the keys' velocity when it reached its highest point?

6. A crazy, young boy on a sled is able to get up to an incredible speed of 22.5 m/s (yes, he is wearing a helmet!) along a frictionless horizontal surface while he approaches an icy hill with a vertical height of 11 m, as shown. He makes it to the top, and then flies off horizontally from the ledge of the hill. How far from the base of the hill does the boy land? 225 mis Figure 1

You go watch your friend as she runs at a cross country meet. The first time she passes you, your friend runs by going due north at a speed of 4.40 m/s. You move to a different place on the course and twelve minutes after you saw her the first time, your friend runs past you again. This time she is traveling at a speed of 3.80 m/s in the direction 30.0◦ W of S. What is the direction of her average acceleration between those same two times?
You are to drive to an interview in another city at a distance of 300km on an expressway. The interview is 11:15 in the morning and you plan to drive at 100kph so you leave at 8 in the morning to allow some extra time. You drive at that speed for the first 100km, but then construction work forces you to slow to 40kph for 40km. What would be the least speed needed for the rest of the trip to arrive in time for the interview?
