OVERALL OBJECTIVE: SC.912.P.12.2. Analyze the motion of an object in terms of its position, velocity, and acceleration (with respect to a frame of reference ) as functions of time.

OBJECTIVE: Calculate average velocity when given a change in displacement and a change in time.

2. ( 3 / ___) Yesterday while driving down 5th avenue, I was able to get from 34th street to 49th street in 2 minutes and 6 seconds. If each block is a 1/10th of a mile, what was my average velocity in mph?

5. ( 3 / ___) During my run down 5th avenue, I got stuck behind a Bio teacher doing 15 mph (24 km/hr – I was so bored driving so slow, I did the conversion). Once I got around her, I was able to accelerate to 70 km/hr in just 3.5 seconds. What was the acceleration of my rocket Nissan Frontier in m/s2?

8. ( 0 / ___) True or False (circle one) I spend way to much time driving down 5th avenue.

OBJECTIVE: Use the kinematic equations solve problems involving horizontal, uniformly accelerated motion.

9. ( 3 / ___) A plane must reach a speed of 80 m/s in order to take off. At full power, the plane can maintain a constant rate of acceleration of 2.5 m/s2. The runway is 1km long. Should the pilot go for it?

ANSWER:

Find out the distance it takes to reach the speed and see if it is less than the runway available.

10. ( 4 / ___) Jeff Gordon accelerates his #24 Dupont, Pepsi Chevrolet coming out of turn 2 and down the straightaway at Daytona. 5.2 seconds later he approaches turn 3 and his speed is 101.5m/s. If he exited turn 2 at 82.3m/s, how long is the straightaway?

ANSWER:

To answer this problem, you must first find the rate of acceleration, then calculate the distance.
