An object moves in along the x-axis with an acceleration given by: a = 9t (m/s2). The position of the object at t=0.0 is 5 m, and its velocity at t=0.0 s is 7 m/s. Calculate the position at t=8 s.
A bus driver heads south with a steady speed of v, = 20.0 m/s for t, = 3.00 min, then makes a right turn and travels at v2 = 25.0 m/s for t, = 2.00 min, and then drives northwest at va = 30.0 m/s for t, = 1.00 min.

When we estimate distances from velocity data, it is sometimes necessary to use times t0, t1, t2, t3, . . . that are not equally spaced. We can still estimate distances using the time periods Δti = ti − ti − 1. For example, a space shuttle was launched on a mission, the purpose of which was to install a new motor in a satellite. The table provided gives the velocity data for the shuttle between liftoff and the jettisoning of the solid rocket boosters. Use these data to estimate the height, h, above Earth's surface of the space shuttle, 62 seconds after liftoff. (Give the upper approximation available from the data.)h = ft Event Time (s) Velocity (ft/s) Launch 0 0 Begin roll maneuver 10 180 End roll maneuver 15 319 Throttle to 89% 20 442 Throttle to 67% 32 742 Throttle to 104% 59 1217 Maximum dynamic pressure 62 1430 Solid rocket booster separation 125 4052
The NEXT morning, you wake up in a strange room yet again, and this time you drop a ball from a height of 1.54 m above the floor. The ball hits the floor 0.392 s after your drop it. You guess that you must have been taken to an alien planet with gravity different from Earth s. What is this planet s g (that is, the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity on this planet)? 10.0 m/s^2 15.0 m/s^2 30.0 m/s^2 20.0 m/s^2

Standing on the roof of a 95-m tall building, a girl holds her hand past the edge and throws a ball straight up at 8 m/s. The ball rises, then falls and strikes the ground. Considering "up" to be the positive direction, find the ball's velocity v when it is 40 m above the ground. Remember to include a "-" sign if the velocity is negative. V = m/s

True or false: If an object accelerates from rest covering 2.0m in 1.0s in the forwards direction then, even though its average velocity is 2.0m/s its instantaneous velocity (or vf in your equations) will be 4.0m/s at t=1.0s and its initial velocity (vi in your equations) will be 0.0m/s at t=0
