Question
QI: Convert to SI units, using any convenient prefix like u, m, e, k, M, G, etc. Show how you
did it, displaying all the needed conversion factors that you used, with their units.
a) 1.00 day
b) 65 miles/hour
Q2: A long freight train travelling at 120 km/h (towards the cast on a straight track) needs a
distance of 1.6 km to brake to a stop.
a) (6) Find the acceleration that is required, in m/s (also give its dircction).
b) (6) How much time does it take for the train to stop?
Q3: A car is accelerated from rest to a velocity of 66 km/h over a distance of 2000 m. (a) How
long did the acceleration last? (b) Calculate the acceleration.
Q4:
1) Find the value of x that makes a perpendicular with b if
a =i+j+3k. ,
b= 2i + 7j - xk
2) Find the angle between e and d when
c= 3i + 2j - 3k. ,
d=i+ 4j +k
