    Question 8 1 pts The driver of a car wishes to pass a truck that is traveling at a constant speed of 20.0 m/s. Initially, the car is traveling at a speed 25.0 m/s and its front bumper is a distance 24.0 m behind the truck's rear bumper. The car begins accelerating at a constant acceleration 0.6 m/s2, then pulls back into the truck's lane when the rear of the car is a distance 26.0 m ahead of the front...

    A police car is traveling in a straight line with a constant speed "Vp". A truck traveling in the same direction with the speed "3*Vp/2" passes the police car. The truck begins to slow down (the moment it passes the police car) at a constant acceleration of "-a" until it comes to a stop. Then the police car passes the truck. What is the maximum velocity the truck can have, so that the police car will reach him before he...

    The driver of a car traveling on the highway suddenly slams on the brakes because of a slowdown in traffic ahead. If the car’s speed decreases at a constant rate from 68 mi/h to 40 mi/h in 3.0 s. The magnitude of acceleration is 3.4x104 mi/hr2. What distance does the car travel during the braking period? Express your answer in FEET. Please show equation and work so I can learn the correct way to work this problem. Thanks

    Starting from rest, a truck travels in a straight line for 8.0 s with a uniform acceleration of +2.0 m/s2. The driver then applies the brakes for 2.0 s, causing a uniform acceleration of −3.0 m/s2 over that time. (a) What is the truck's speed at the end of the braking period? m/s (b) What is the total distance traveled by the truck (from the point where it started at rest to the end of the braking period)? m
