The document contains two physics problems and their solutions. The first problem involves calculating the speed of a car accelerating from 36 km/h over 5 seconds to determine if it exceeded the speed limit. The second problem involves calculating the deceleration, frictional force, required push power, and time taken for a shopping cart to slow and stop over a distance of 4 meters after being released. The solutions are provided for each part of the two problems.

1. A car is driven with an acceleration of 2 ms-2 from an initial
speed of 36 kmh-1. It took the car 5s before he reached a speed trap. If the speed limit for the road is 80 kmh-1, has the driver committed a traffic offence? 2. 3.
A boy pushes a shopping cart at a speed of 2.1 m s-1, The boy
suddenly stopped n let go of the cart, which slowed down due to frictional force opposing its motion. The cart continued to roll for distance of 4 m before coming to a complete stop. (a) Calculate the deceleration of the trolley. (b) If the total mass of the cart is 20 kg, calculate the frictional force opposing its motion. (c) Calculate the power needed to push the cart at a steady speed of 2.1 m s-1. (d
