1. An object moves with a constant velocity of 15 m/s. (a) How far will it travel in 2.0 s? (b) If the time is doubled, how far will it travel?
A car starts from 2.00 m/s and accelerates at 4.00 m/s2 for 6.0 s, it coasts for 5.00 s, and then slows down at a rate of 2.00 m/s2to a stop. How far has it traveled, in meters? Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.
1. A driver is travelling with a speed of 31 km/hr when he accelerates for 4.7 s, his speed has been increased to 66.3 km/hr. (a) What is his acceleration? (b) How far does he travel during this time? (c) If he continues to travel with his new speed, how far will he travel during the next 3.9 s?
5. Your motion along the x-axis begins at rest and at x= 0. The motion consists of acceleration at 2.00 m/s2for 10.0 s, a time period of 6.00 seconds with no acceleration, and then deceleration at -1.00 m/s2for 20.0 s resulting in a final speed of zero. The total distance traveled is 420 m. What is the average speed during this motion? Give answer to 3 significant figures. Help solve this problem, thanks!

2. A subway train starts from rest at a station and accelerates at a rate of 2.50 m/s2 for15.90 seconds. It then runs at a constant speed for 35 seconds and then slows down ata rate of 4.50 m/s2 until it stops at the next station.(a) What is the speed of the train just before it starts slowing down?(Ans.: = 39.75 m/s)(b) How long did it take the train to finish the trip from one station to the other?(Ans.: = 59.73 s)
An athlete wants to run a 1500m race with an average velocity of 6.00 m/s. After running the first 500m, he notices that the time elapsed is 100 seconds. Panicking, he accelerates for “t” seconds at 0.2 m/seconds^2 and finishes the race at his new faster speed. He makes it just in time. How long did he accelerate for? (Use 5 significant figures in the answer)
