At the instant the traffic light goes green, a car waiting at the intersection starts ahead with an acceleration of 2.5m/s2. At the same instant, a bus coming from behind moving at 12.0 m/s passes the car. When and where will the car catch up with the bus?
The driver of a car slams on his brakes when he sees a tree blocking the road. The car slows uniformly with an acceleration of -5.6 m/s2 for 4.2s, making straight skid marks 62.4m long, all the way to the tree. With what speed does the car then strike the tree?
A motorcycle starts from rest when t = 0 and travels along a straight road at a constant velocity of 7.0 ft/s² until it reaches a speed of 60 ft/s. Then it maintains this speed. Also, when t = 0, a car located 6000 ft from the motorcycle is traveling toward the motorcycle at a constant speed of 40 ft/s. Determine the time when they intersect.

A pickup truck is traveling at 30.0 m/s. The driver of the truck applies the brakes and gives the truck a uniform deceleration of 6.50 m/s2² while it travels 20.0 m. What is the speed of the truck in m/s at the end of this distance?
1) Billy Bob drives 35.6km to work each day (down at the call center where he makes up random answers to people's internet problems), at 25.0m/s (ignore speeding up and slowing down; BillyBob belives in "pedal to the metal" and he doesn't believe in stop signs.) As the crow flies, he lives 17.66km due North from where he works. What is his average velocity on his drive to work?
MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER A cab driver heads south with a steady speed of v, -20.0 m/s for t-3.00 min, then makes a right turn and travels at v₂ - 25.0 m/s for fy 2.20 min, and then drives northwest at v₂ - 30.0 m/s for ty-1.00 min. For this 6.20-min trip, calculate the following. Assume +x is in the eastward direction. (a) total vector displacement (Enter the magnitude in m and the direction in degrees south of west.)
