An airplane flies eastward and always accelerates at a constant rate. At one position along its path, it has a velocity of 29.7 m/s. It then flies a further distance of 41700 m, and afterwards, its velocity is 42.3 m/s. Find the airplane's acceleration.
A body starts moving with a velocity of 3 m/s and moves in a straight line motion with uniform acceleration. After 5 seconds of time it has gained the velocity of 5.5 m/s. Find the uniform acceleration and the distance travelled in 10 seconds.
A driver traveling at night on a country road suddenly sees another car pull out into the roadway in front of him.He slams on his brakes and skids for a distance of 72.9 m until he hits the other car. If the driver slowed with constant acceleration of 4.8m/s² for 4.5 s,with what speed would he hit the other car?
