Kinematic Equations

A car is traveling to the right with a speed of 29​​m/s when the rider slams on the accelerator to pass another car. The car passes in 110 m with constant acceleration and reaches a speed of 34m/s. We want to find the acceleration of the car as it sped up. What equation should you choose?

• v=v_o+at

• d=v_ot+1/2at²

• v²=v_o²+2ad

• d=1/2(v+v_o)t

A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly over a time of 5.21 seconds for a distance of 110 m. Determine the acceleration of the car. Choose the appropriate equation.

• v=v_o+at

• d=v_ot+1/2at²

• v²=v_o²+2ad

• d=1/2(v+v_o)t

A policeman traveling 19.5 m/s spots a speeder ahead, so he accelerates his vehicle at a steady rate of 1.81 m/s² for 3.2 s, at which time he catches up with the speeder. What distance does the police car cover in that time?

d = v_it + ½ at²

• 35.98 m

• 56.32 m

• 71.67 m

• 91.02 m
