Suppose the volume V of some object happens
to depend on time t according to the equation
B
V (t) = A t3 + , where A and B are some

Paths Cross 02
004 10.0 points
Runner A is initially 3.5 mi west of a flagpole
and is running with a constant velocity of
5.8 mi/h due east. Runner B is initially 3.5 mi
east of the flagpole and is running with a
constant velocity of 5.9 mi/h due west.
What is the displacement of runner B from
the flagpole when their paths cross? Consider
East to be the positive direction.

A ball is thrown upward from the ground with
an initial speed of 33 m/s; at the same instant,
a ball is dropped from a building 12 m high.
After how long will the balls be at the
same height? The acceleration of gravity is
9.8 m/s2 .

Car and Checkpoints 01 v1
002 10.0 points
Consider a car which is traveling along a
straight road with constant acceleration a.
There are two checkpoints A and B which are
a distance 111 m apart. The time it takes for
the car to travel from A to B is 5.12 s.
