As soon as a traffic light turns green, a car speeds up from rest to 49.0 mi/h with constant acceleration 7.00 mi/h/s. In the adjoining bike lane, a cyclist speeds up from rest to 15.0 mi/h with constant acceleration 13.50 mi/h/s. Each vehicle maintains constant velocity after reaching its cruising speed.

(a) For what time interval is the bicycle ahead of the car?



(b) By what maximum distance does the bicycle lead the car?

Starting from rest, a car speeds up uniformly to (4.80 + A) m/s in a time of 12.0 s. The car then travels with this speed for (15.0 + B) seconds before slowing down at a constant rate to a stop in 24.0 seconds. Determine the total distance in meters traveled from start to end. Round your final answer to three significant figures. (Hint: Sketch a velocity – time graph for the motion and use the graph to determine the...

A car starts from a state of rest and drives along a level, straight road. For the first 30 s, the car speeds up with a constant acceleration of 2.50 m/s 2 , after which it continues at the constant velocity that it has acquired for the next 5.00 minutes, at which time the brakes are applied, and there is an acceleration of -2.2 m/s 2 until the car stops. What is the total displacement of the car from its...

A speedboat starts from rest at t = 0 s, and speeds up with a constant acceleration of 4.01 m/s2 for 6.00 s. Then it continues with a uniform speed for another 6.00 s. Finally, it slows down with a constant acceleration of −3.41 m/s2 . In your written work, include the velocity vs. time and acceleration vs. time graphs for this motion. The numerical values on the graphs are required. (a) How long does it take for the speedboat...

A computer hard disk starts from rest, then speeds up with an angular acceleration of 210 rad/ s^2 for 5.0 s until it reaches its final angular speed. It rotates for another 6.0 s at that constant angular speed. It then slows down and comes to rest in 9.0 s. A. determine the angular speed of the disk 5.0 s after start up. Express your answer in rad/s and rpm (rev/min). B. determine the angular speed of the disk 11.0...
