1.Easy
t (s)v (m/s)10 s46

A car moving at 16 m/s speeds up with a constant acceleration of 3 m/s² for 10 s. How far does it travel in that time? Find s.

v₀ = 16 m/sa = 3 m/s²t = 10 s
s = m
2.Easy
t (s)v (m/s)3 sv = ?

A car moving at 0 m/s speeds up with a constant acceleration of 0.5 m/s² for 3 s. Find its final speed v.

v₀ = 0 m/sa = 0.5 m/s²t = 3 s
v = m/s
3.Medium
a = 2.75 m/s²s = 600 m

A plane starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 2.75 m/s² along a runway. Find its speed v after 600 m.

v₀ = 0a = 2.75 m/s²s = 600 m
v = m/s
4.Medium
t (s)v (m/s)2.381 s16.67

A car driving at 60 km/h brakes with a constant deceleration of 7 m/s² until it stops. Find the braking distance s.

v₀ = 60 km/ha = −7 m/s²v = 0
s = m
5.Hard
v₀ = 7 m/s30 m

A ball is thrown straight up at 7 m/s from the edge of a roof 30 m above the ground. Ignore air resistance and use g = 9.81 m/s². How long after the throw does it hit the ground? Find t.

v₀ = 7 m/sh₀ = 30 mg = 9.81 m/s²
t = s
6.Hard
v₀ = 17 m/s35 m

A ball is thrown straight up at 17 m/s from the edge of a roof 35 m above the ground. Ignore air resistance and use g = 9.81 m/s². How long after the throw does it hit the ground? Find t.

v₀ = 17 m/sh₀ = 35 mg = 9.81 m/s²
t = s

Answer key

  1. 1. s = 310 m
  2. 2. v = 1.5 m/s
  3. 3. v = 57.45 m/s
  4. 4. s = 19.84 m
  5. 5. t = 3.288 s
  6. 6. t = 4.917 s
