You are driving your car along a country road at a speed of 27.0 m/s. As you come over the crest of a hill, you notice a farm tractor 25 m ahead of you on the road, moving in the same direction as you at a speed of 12.0 m/s. You immediately slam on your brakes and slow down with a constant acceleration of magnitude 8 m/s2. Will you hit the tractor before you stop? Ο No O Yes How far will you travel before you stop or collide with the tractor? 6.5 X m If you stop, how far is the tractor in front of you when you finally stop? (If you instead collide, enter 0 below.) m Enter a number.

Lately, Jason has been taking drivers' ed so that he can get his license. However, he's also been taking physics, and so he wonders what his acceleration is, when he drives on a circular path in an empty parking lot near Peachtree Mall with diameter 78.0 m, if he is driving at a constant speed of 23.0 m/s. What is his acceleration? O 66.1 m/s² 13.6 m/s2 O 0.590 m/s² O 1.70 m/s² O 0 m/s²
You purchase the new Tesla Roadster and decide to take it out for a spin on theNewmarket Race Track. After getting to a top speed of 410. km/hr, suddenly atree falls down on the road blocking your path. You slam on your brakes to avoidhitting the fallen tree and thus, come to a complete stop. You were at a distanceof 30.0 m away from the tree when you hit the brakes. Assuming that theRoadster does not skid, what is the minimum deceleration needed to avoidhitting the fallen tree?

Clay Matthews, a linebacker for the Green Bay Packers, can reach a speed of 10.0 m/s. At the start of a play, Matthews runs downfield at 45 with respect to the 50-yard line and covers 8.0 m in 1 s. He then fins straight down the field at 90 with respect to the 50-yard line for 12 m, with an elapsed time of 1.2 s. (a) What is Matthews’ final displacement from the start of the play? (b) What is his average velocity?
