1) Sick of his guff, Optimus decides to throw Megatron down off the top of a building

at ​5.0 m/s​. Megatron hits the ground traveling at ​32.0 m/s​.

a) How long​ does it take to hit the ground?
b) How far​ does he fall?

2) Optimus Prime coasts up a hill initially at ​11.0 m/s. After ​9.3s he is rolling back
down the slope at ​7.3 m/s​. What is his ​acceleration​?

3) An airplane starts from ​rest and accelerates at a constant rate of ​3.00 m/s​2 for
30.0s​ before leaving the ground.
a) How far​ did it move?
b) How fast​ was it going when it took off?

4) Isaac throws an apple straight up (in the positive direction) from ​1.0 m above the
ground, reaching a maximum height of ​35 meters​. Neglecting air resistance, what
is the ball’s ​velocity ​when it hits the ground?

5) You are driving towards a traffic signal when it turns yellow. Your speed is ​55
km/h​, and your best deceleration has the magnitude of ​a = 5.15ms​-2​. Your best
reaction time before breaking is ​t0​​ =0.75s​. To avoid having the front of your car
enter the intersection after the light turns red, ​should you break to a stop or
continue​ to move at ​55 km/h​ if the distance to the intersection and the duration of
the yellow light are:
a) (a) ​40m and 2.8s​, and
b) (b) ​32m and 1.8s​?

6) Explain what the slope of the graph and the area below represent on each graph:
a) S vs t
b) V vs t
c) A vs t

7) In the velocity vs time graph below, calculate the object’s acceleration at each
section and total displacement:
