- Q9A cruise ship travels directly toward the dock with a velocity of 12 m/s relative to the water. A passenger walks 2 m/s in the same direction as shown in the picture below. According to the information and diagram, how far has the passenger traveled relative to the dock after three seconds?72 m17 m38 m42 m120s112.39.c.4.b
- Q10A 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?200.0 s60.0 s40.0 s66.7 s120s112.39.c.4.b

- Q12A train travels north at a speed of 50 m/s. A passenger walks toward the rear of the train at a speed of 2 m/s. A person standing on a platform at the train station observes the motion of the passenger as the train passes. According to the information and diagram above, what is the apparent speed of the passenger with respect to the train station platform?2 m/s South50 m/s North48 m/s North52 m/s North120s112.39.c.4.b
- Q13A plane initially traveling at 200 m/s due west experiences a 10 m/s head wind as shown below. Refer to the information and diagram. Assuming the plane is traveling directly toward its destination and on schedule BEFORE experiencing the wind, the plane will most likely be —earlylateimpossible to tellon time120s112.39.c.4.b
- Q14A 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) / ∆ta = vf^2 – vi^2 / 2∆dVavg = ∆d / ∆t∆d = vi∆t + 1⁄2a∆t^2120s112.39.c.4.b
- Q15One 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 / ∆ta = (vf – vi) / ∆ta = vf^2 – vi^2 / 2∆d∆y = (Viy)∆t + 1⁄2a∆t^2.120s112.39.c.4.b
