A powerful motorcycle can accelerate from rest to 26.8 m/s (100 km/ h) in only 3.90 s. (a) What is its average acceleration? (b) How far does it travel in that time?
At the end of a race, a runner decelerates from a velocity of 9.00 m/s at a rate of\({\bf{2}}\;{\bf{m/}}{{\bf{s}}^{\bf{2}}}\). (a) How far does she travel in the next 5.00 s? (b) What is her final velocity? (c) Evaluate the result. Does it make sense?
(a) Sketch a graph of velocity versus time corresponding to the graph of displacement versus time given in Figure 2.55.
(b) Identify the time or times ( ta , tb , tc , etc.) at which the instantaneous velocity is greatest.
(c) At which times is it zero?
(d) At which times is it negative?

There is a distinction between average speed and the magnitude of average velocity. Give an example that illustrates the difference between these two quantities.
Find the following for path D in Figure 2.59:
(a) The distance travelled.
(b) The magnitude of the displacement from start to finish.
(c) The displacement from start to finish.
