    A rocket test sled accelerates at a constant rate of 15 m/s2 from rest while moving along a straight track. The rocket engine turns off instantly when the sled reaches a speed 30 m/s. The sled then moves freely (acceleration = 0) for a period of 5 s, after which the brakes are automatically applied giving a constant deceleration of -25 m/s2. What is the total time that the sled is moving?

    A 1000-kg car is accelerated from rest to 85 km/h in 10 s. Assuming that no mass is lost and the car accelerates on a flat, horizontal surface, what is the change of the total energy of the car? How much power is required to change this total energy? Would the total energy change and power required change if it were to accelerate in 5 s?
