  • Q10
    A horizontal escalator is a move-able walkway often seen at airports. One escalator has a velocity of 2 m/s and is used to move people to a gate 200 m away. Two different people were traveling to the gate. The first person stood still on the escalator while the second person was walking on it at 3 m/s. According to the information and diagram above, how much longer would it take the first person to arrive at the gate?

  • Q14
    A car travels at a constant 60 km per hour in the positive direction down a straight line highway. In order to find the displacement, in standard units, of the car 45 seconds later, what equation would I use AFTER I have already converted.
    a = (vf – vi) / ∆t
    a = vf^2 – vi^2 / 2∆d
    Vavg = ∆d / ∆t
    ∆d = vi∆t + 1⁄2a∆t^2

  • Q15
    One drops a penny from the top of the Empire State Building on to the ground below. The height of the Empire State Building is 443 m. If I wanted to know how long it will take for the penny to strike the ground, What equation would I use?
    Vavg = ∆d / ∆t
    a = (vf – vi) / ∆t
    a = vf^2 – vi^2 / 2∆d
    ∆y = (Viy)∆t + 1⁄2a∆t^2.
