The brakes on your automobile are capable of creating a deceleration of 4.6 m/s^2. if you are going 114 km/h and suddenly see a state trooper, what is the minimum time in which you can get your car under the 79 km/h speed limit? (the answer reveals the futility of braking to keep your high speed from being detected with a radar or laser gun.)

Aboxcar traveling at 12 m/s approaches a string of 5 identical boxcars sitting stationary on the track. the moving boxcar collides and links with the stationary cars and they all move off together along the track. what is the final speed of the cars immediately after the collision? (you may take the mass of each boxcar to be 18,537 kg.)

An engineer designs a roller coaster so that a car travels horizontally for 152 ft, then climbs 137 ft at an angle of 34.0° above the horizontal. it then moves 137 ft at an angle of 48.0° below the horizontal. if we take the initial horizontal motion of the car to be along the +x-axis, what is the car's displacement? (give the magnitude of your answer, in ft, to at least four significant figures and give the direction of your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.)

What is the stall speed at sea level of an airplane that weights 10000 lbs., has a wing area of 300ft^2, and a maximum lift coefficient of 1.4? what is the stall speed if flaps that double cl,max are applied?
