1. Usian Bolt holds the 100 m world record with a time of 9.58 s. During the race, he has a reaction time of 0.15 s, and then he accelerates at a constant rate from rest to his top speed in 2.73 s. He then runs at this top speed for the rest of the race.
a) What was his top speed during the race?
Hint: You might find it helpful to start this problem by sketching the velocity vs time curve for this problem. Since you don’t know his top speed, leave this as an unknown variable. How can you find displacement or distance traveled from the velocity vs time curve? Remember that the sum of the distance traveled through each of the different segments of the race must add to 100 m.
b) Sketch the acceleration vs time curve for his race. Make sure you clearly label the important times and accelerations.
c) Sketch the velocity vs time curve for his race. Make sure you clearly label the important times and velocities.
d) Sketch the position vs time curve for his race. Make sure you clearly label the important times and positions.

Usain Bolt can sprint 100 m in 10s. He accelerates uniformly for the first 3 s of the race and then maintains a constant velocity for the final 7s of the race. Find his acceleration during the first 3s of the race. What distance does he travel in the first 3s of the race? What is the velocity when be finishes the race?
Antron Brown holds the world record for fastest time in a 1/4 mile drag race in the Top Fuel category. On October 8, 2012, he completed the race in 3-701 seconds at a track in Mohnton, Pennsylvania. a) If one mile equals 1,609.3 m, how far did he go, in meters? 0.25 es 02.336 rokrs b) What his average acceleration?
A hotel elevator ascends 200 m
with a maximum speed of 5.0 m/s. Its acceleration and deceleration
both have a magnitude of 1.0 m/s2. How far does the
elevator move while accelerating to full speed from rest? how long
does it take to make the complete trip from bottom to top?

2. The following velocity-vs-time graph represents the motion of a race car during the first few sec- onds of a race. The track may be assumed to be straight during this period. Afterwards the car continues to travel at a constant speed around the rest of the track, ending its lap back on the start/finish line.

Sean is running a 100 m dash. When the starter's pistol fires, he leaves the starting block and continues speeding up until 6 s into the race, when he reaches his top speed of 11 m/s. He holds this speed for 2 s; then his speed has slowed to 10 m/s by the time he crosses the finish line 11 s after he started the race 11) Chapter 2, Problem 6 Assume that Sean starts from rest and his motion...
