Lamborghini Murcielago is one of the most iconic cars ever as it was featured as a Batmobile in the third installment of Batman Trilogy directed by Christopher Nolan. If it can go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 3 seconds, what is its rate of change in velocity per unit time? (1 mile is equal to 1.61 kilometers)

You are driving 65.0 miles/hour and you see a police car, so you slow down to 42.5 miles/hour. It takes you 3 seconds to do this. What is your deceleration? (I asked this one before, but someone plugged in -22.5 miles/hr x 2.237 m/s / 1 mile an hour which I didn't understand)
A police is driving a cop car to a suspect's home to pick him up. He drives at 59 km/h for 15 minutes and 46 km/h for 30 minutes. What was his average speed in kilometers per hour during the course of 45 minutes? Your answer should be rounded to the closest hundredth.
In 2015, a Japanese high-speed train set a record— traveling at 374 mph during a test run near Mt. Fuji. What is the speed in kilometers per hour (1 mi = 1609 m)? Report your answer as a whole number.
The typical American man has a leg length of 0.85 m and walks at a speed of 1.4 m/s. A giraffe’s legs are 1.8 m long. At what speed do you expect a giraffe to walk? Hint: An animal’s speed is proportional to the length of its legs times the frequency of its strides.
The acceleration of a race car as a function of time is a(t) = kt, where a is measured in meters per second squared, t is measured in seconds and k is a constant. If its velocity at t = 0 is 2 m/s, and it is 26 m/s at t = 2 s, what is the value of the constant, k? * O 12 m/s^3 O 12 m/s^2 24 m/s^3 13 m/s^3
A car is traveling at 30 m/s ( approximately 67 mph) on I-95 highway. The driver applies the brakes and the car comes to a stop in 4.0 s . What is the car's acceleration, in m/s2?
Evan is just leaving his house to visit his grandma. Normally, the trip takes him 25 minutes on the freeway, going 55 mph. But tonight he’s running 5 minutes late. How fast will he need to drive on the freeway to make up the 5 minutes?Express your answer in miles per hour.
A plane covered a distance of 630 miles in 6 hours. For the first part of the trip, the average speed was 100 mph and for the second part of the trip, the average speed was 110 mph. What is the time it flew at each speed?
