assuming the acceleration is constant, what is the acceleration of the skateboarder during the 5\,\text s5s5, space, s time period?

Acar is traveling at 53.0 mi/h on a horizontal highway. (a) if the coefficient of static friction between road and tires on a rainy day is 0.104, what is the minimum distance in which the car will stop?

Arotating space station is said to create “artificial gravity”—a loosely-defined term used for an acceleration that would be crudely similar to gravity. the outer wall of the rotating space station would become a floor for the astronauts, and centripetal acceleration supplied by the floor would allow astronauts to exercise and maintain muscle and bone strength more naturally than in non-rotating space environments. if the space station is 200 m in diameter, what angular velocity would produce an “artificial gravity” of 9.80 m/s^{2} 2 at the rim?
