| A car accelerates from rest to a speed of 10.0 m/s in 5.0 s. If the rate of acceleration is uniform, determine the rate of acceleration and the distance traveled during the 5.0 s of motion. | 2.0 m/s^2; 25 m |
| A car decelerates at a rate of 2.0 m/s^2 while coming to a complete halt after traveling 25 m. Determine the speed of the car at the start of the deceleration and the time required for the car to come to a complete stop. | 10 m/s; 5.0 s |
| A motorcyclist starts from rest and accelerates in one direction with a constant acceleration of 4.0 m/s^2 for 12 s. What is the rider's velocity at the end of the 12 s? | 48 m/s |
| A Boeing 747 airliner, initially at rest, undergoes a constant acceleration of 2.3 m/s^2 down the runway for 34 s before it lifts off. How far does it travel down the runway before taking off? | 1329.4 m |
| You are driving your new sports car at a velocity of 90 km/h, when you suddenly see a dog step into the road 50 m ahead. You hit the brakes hard to get a maximum deceleration of 7.5 m/s^2. How far will you go before stopping? Can you avoid hitting the dog? | 41.7 m; yes |
| A motorcyclist moving with an initial velocity of 8.0 m/s undergoes a constant acceleration for 3.0 s, at which time his velocity is 17.0 m/s. What is the acceleration? How far does he travel during that 3.0-s interval? | 3.0 m/s^2; 37.5 m |
| According to tests, a Dodge Spirit R/T can accelerate from 0 to 60 mi/h in 6.5 s. Assuming constant acceleration, how far does the Dodge travel during that time? | 87 m |
