2. A blue car is moving at a constant speed of 70 m/s when it passes signage with a police officer beside it. Due to the car's over speeding, the police officer chases it with a constant acceleration of 4 m/s, one second after the car passes the signage. How long does it the police officer to overtake the truck?

A motorcycle officer hidden at an intersection observes a car driven by an oblivious driver who ignores a stop sign and continues through the intersection at a constant speed. The police officer takes off in pursuit 2.0s after the car has passed the stop sign. She accelerates at 4.2 m/s^2 until her speed is 110 km/h until she catches the car. The car is 1.4 km from the intersection. a) How long did it take for the officer to catch the car? b) How fast was the car traveling?
3. ि Ferrari is one of the fastest hypercars commercially produced, capable of reaching a speed of over 340 km/h. Some time at the race, its velocity is recorded at a whopping 358 km/h. If it accelerates at a constant rate of 7 km/hr², how long would it take to finish the race from the moment its velocity was recorded up to the finish line, which is 4500km long?
Question 1 1. Maximal height= 2. Average speed= A) A stone was thrown vertically upwards from the top of a building that is170 m heigh with an initial speed of 30 m/s at time tn=0.

The river's current is flowing from west to east at a speed of 3.5 km/h. The motorboat is travelling directly north and has a speed through the water of 12.4 km/h. What is the velocity of the motorboat relative to an observer standing on the riverbank? (Show ALL work).
3. Two rockets start from rest at the same elevation. Rocket A accelerates vertically at 20m/s^2 for 12s and then maintains a constant speed. Rocket B accelerates at 15m/s^2 until reaching a constant speed of 150m/s. What is the distance between the rockets when t=20s.
# 5) There is a high-speed police chase on 1-64! The driver of a police car heading East pulls off into an emergency turn around on 1-64 so that he can turn around and join the pursuit, which is moving on the westward side of the interstate. In order to successfully merge with constant acceleration, the police car starts from rest, moves in a straight line, and has a speed of 24.0 m/s when it reaches the end of the merge lane, which has a total length of 80.0 m. Report answers below to 3 sig figs. A) What is the magnitude of the constant acceleration of the police during merging? B) How much time does it take the police car to travel the full length of the merging lane? C) The traffic on 1-64 is moving at a constant speed of 17.0 m/s. What distance does the traffic travel while the police car is moving the length of the merging lane?
8. GO An 18-year-old runner can complete a 10.0-km course with an average speed of 4.39 m/s. A 50-year-old runner can cover the same dis- tance with an average speed of 4.27 m/s. How much later (in seconds) should the younger runner start in order to finish the course at the same time as the older runner?

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?
