1. A truck leaves a stop sign and accelerates uniformly over a time of 5.21 seconds for a
distance of 110 meters. What is the acceleration of the truck?
2. An engineer is designing a new runway for a major airport. The plane with the lowest
acceleration that uses the airport has an acceleration of 3 m/s?. The takeoff speed for
this aircraft will be at 65m/s. What is the minimum length of the runway that needs to be
designed?
3. A bullet leaves a rifle with a muzzle velocity of 521m/s. While accelerating through the
barrel of the rifle, the bullet moves a distance of 0.840 meters. Determine the
acceleration of the bullet.

4. A jet has a takeoff speed of 88.3m/s and requires 1365 meters to reach that speed.
Determine the acceleration of the jet and the time that is required to reach this speed.
5. An tractor trailer truck traveling at a speed of 105 feet/second skids to a stop in 12
seconds. Determine the skidding distance of the truck.
