Kinematics: Constant Acceleration (2)
1. What distance does an object travel during a period of uniform acceleration of 2.5 m/s2 when its
speed changes from 35 m/s to 45 m/s?
2. A jogger is running at 4.2 m/s when she begins to accelerate uniformly. If she runs a distance of 14
meter in the next 3.0 s, what is her new speed?
3. An object is thrown vertically upward at 25.0 m/s. What is the object's velocity 3 s later?
(magnitude and direction).
4. A ball is thrown vertically upward from a window, and hit the ground 2.6 s later with a speed of
20.0 m/s. From what height above the ground was it thrown?
