Constant speed / Constant velocity
a = 0m/s2

7. Example #1
If a new concept car can accelerate at a rate of 12m/s2, (a) how long will it take to reach a top speed of 48m/s if it starts from rest? (b) How far did the car travel within this time? (a) (b)

8. Example #2
While driving on the highway, a deer suddenly jumps in front of your car. You slam on the brakes and decelerate at 20m/s2. After coming to rest, the deer frolics away unscathed. You look in the rearview mirror and notice a skid mark on the road that is approximately 33m long; how fast were you going before Bambi decided to be a jerk?
