s its speed to v2 = 120 km/hrin time t = 15 s. If its acceleration is constant,
determine the distance traveled.
A car starts from rest and reaches a speed v = 80 ft/s after traveling a
distance d = 500 ftalong a straight road. Determine its constant acceleration a
nd the time of travel.
A particle is moving with velocity v0 when s = 0 and t = 0. If it is sub
jected to a deceleration of a = -k v3, where k is a constant, determine its velo
city as functions of time.
A baseball is thrown downward from a tower of height h = 50 ftwith an in

e time of travel.
Starting from rest, a particle moving in a straight line has an accelera
tion of a = (2t - 6). Whatis the particle s velocity at 6 s and what is its positi

Traveling with an initial speed 70 kpha car accelerates at rate 6000 km/
hr2along a straight road. How long will it take to reach a speed 120 kph? Also,
through what distance does the car travel during this time?
A freight train travels at v = 60(1 - e- b t) where tis the elapsed time

. (where: b = 1/s)
A particle has an initial speed v0 = 27 m/s. If it experiences a deceler

A particle is moving with velocity v0 when s = 0 and t = 0. If it is sub
jected to a deceleration of a = -k v3, where k is a constant, determine its velo
city as functions of time.
The car is travelling at 30 mi/h when the traffic light 295ft ahead turn
s yellow. The driver takes 1s to react before he applies the brakes. A) After he
applies the brakes, what constant rate of deceleration will cause the car to co
me to a stop just as it reaches the light? B) How long does it take the car to t
ravel the 295ft to the light.
The airplane releases its drag parachute at time t=0. Its velocity is gi

SITUATION:
PART II.
The pitcher throws the baseball horizontally with a speed of 140ft/s fro
m a height of 5 ft. If the batter is 60 ft away, determine the time for the ball
to arrive at the batter and the height h at which it passes the batter.

Determine the smallest angle ?, measured above the horizontal, that the
hose should be directed so that the water stream strikes the bottom of the wall
at B. The speed of the water at the nozzle is VC.
