Prince Sultan University Physics 105 Assignment sheet regarding chapter 2 One-Dimensional Kinematics

Q1). A plane starts from rest and accelerates along the ground before takeoff. It moves 600m in 12s. Find: 1. The acceleration. 2. Speed at the end of 12 s. 3. Distance moved during the twelfth second. Q2). A car traveling at a constant speed of 45.0 m/s passes a policeman on a motorcycle. One second after the speeding car passes the motorcycle; the policeman starts from rest to catch the car, accelerating at a constant rate of 3.00 m/s2. How long does it take him to overtake the car? Q3). A car moving with an initial velocity of 25 m/s east has a constant acceleration of 3 m/s2 west. Calculate its velocity after 6 seconds of motion? Q4). A racing car traveling with constant acceleration increases its speed from 10m/s to 30m/s over a distance of 50 m. How long does this take? Q5). An object moves along the x axis according to the equation x=3.00t 2-2.00t + 3.00, where x is in meters and t is in seconds. Determine (a) the average speed between t = 2.00 s and t = 3.00 s, (b) the instantaneous speed at t = 2.00 s and at t = 3.00 s, (c) the average acceleration between t = 2.00 s and t = 3.00 s, and (d) the instantaneous acceleration at t =2.00 s and t = 3.00 s. (e) At what time is the object at rest?

Q6). A velocitytime graph for an object moving along the x axis is shown in the Figure. (a) Plot a graph of the acceleration versus time. (b) Determine the average acceleration of the object in the time intervals t = 5.00 s to t =15.0 s and t = 0.0 to t = 20.0 s.
