A truck on a straight road starts from rest, accelerating at2.00 m/s2 until it reaches a speed of 42.0 m/s. Then the truck travels for56.0 s at constant speed untilthe brakes are applied, stopping the truck in a uniform manner inan additional 5.00 s.

(a) How long is the truck in motion?
s
(b) What is the average velocity of the truck for the motiondescribed?

A car starts from rest and travels for 5.0 s with a uniform acceleration of +1.5 m/s2. The driver then applies the brakes, causing a uniform acceleration of −2.0 m/s2. If the brakes are applied for 3.0 s, how fast is the car going at the end of the braking period, and how far has it gone from its start?

In a stunt being filmed for a movie, a sports car overtakes a truck towing a ramp, drives up and off the ramp, soars into the air, and then lands on top of a flat trailer towed by a second truck. The tops of the ramp and the flat trailer are the same height above the road, and the ramp is inclined 13° above the horizontal. Both trucks are driving at a constant speed of 11 m/s, and the trailer is 20 m from the end of the ramp. Neglect air resistance, and assume that the ramp changes the direction, but not the magnitude, of the car's initial velocity. What is the minimum speed the car must have, relative to the road, as it starts up the ramp?

An electric vehicle starts from rest and accelerates at a rate of 2.5 m/s2 in a straight line until it reaches a speed of 29 m/s. The vehicle then slows at a constant rate of 1.2 m/s2 until it stops. (a) How much time elapses from start to stop? (b) How far does the vehicle move from start to stop?
