A car starting from rest moves with a constant acceleration of 10 km/for 1 hour,

then decelerates at a constant -5 km/until it comes to a stop. How far has it

traveled.

 A train upon passing point A at a speed of 72 kph accelerated at 0.75 m/ for one
minute along a straight line path then decelerated at 1.0 m/. How far in kilometer from
point A will it be 2 minutes after passing point A.

Upon take off, an airplane starts with an initial acceleration of 2 m/ and increases
uniformly at 0.8 m/ every second. If its take-off speed is 450 kph, how long should

A projectile is launched from a point A with initial velocity of 130 m/s and angle
of 42 with the horizontal. Determine the ff:
a. The Slant distance S
b. The total time of flight
c. The velocity with which the projectile strike point C.

A baseball player released a ball by 30 degree at point A and enter the ring at
point B, 10 meter away from the player. The height of the player is 2 m, and the
height of the ring is 3 m. Neglect the size of the ball, determine the magnitude of
velocity of the ball when release by the player and when it passes throught the
basket.
