A tortoise and a hare are competing in a 1200-meter race. The arrogant hare decides to let the tortoise have a 820-meter head start. When the start gun is fired the hare begins running at a constant speed of 8 meters per second and the tortoise begins crawling at a constant speed of 4.5 meters per second. Which of the following formulas expresses the distance between the tortoise and the hare in meters, d, in terms of the number of seconds, t, since the start gun was fired? Od = 820 - 8t Od = 820 + 3.5t Od = 820 - 3.5t Od = 1200 3.5t Od = 1200 - (8t + 4.5t)

Consider a toy rocket that undergoes one dimensional motion. It is launched from rest straight up from the ground and rises under constant acceleration for Δt1 seconds, when it loses power. It hits the ground Δt2 seconds later. You can consider Δt1 = t1 – t0 and Δt2 = t2 – t1. What was the rocket’s acceleration before t1?
