A man decided to ride his car at 10 kph for the first 5 seconds. He then accelerates at 1 m/s for the next 5 seconds, 2 m/s for the next 5 seconds, 3 m/s2 for the next 5 seconds, and so on and so forth.
(a) At what time will he reach a velocity of 60 kph?
(b) What is the total distance (m) traveled after he has reached a velocity of 60 kph?
A typical reaction time to get your foot on the brake in your car is 0.2 seconds. If you are traveling at a speed of 47 kph, what distance will
your car travel during this reaction time? Express your answers in meters.
If an object is thrown straight up and reaches a height of 20 m, what was the initial speed of the object?
