Donatello

11. What about Leonardo and Michelangelo?

12. Fighting with the turtles

13. Example #1
Jimmy is at rest in his corvette. Suddenly he hits the gas and accelerates at a constant rate of 4 m/s2. What will his velocity be after 5 seconds?
forward

14. Example #2a
A plane is moving at a speed of 50 mph when it lands on a runway. Accelerating uniformly, it comes to a stop after covering a quarter mile. How long did it take to stop? What was its acceleration?

15. Example #2b
A plane is moving at a speed of 50 mph when it lands on a runway. Accelerating uniformly, it comes to a stop after covering a quarter mile. How long did it take to stop? What was its acceleration?

17. Example #3
A race car travelling at 60 mph accelerates uniformly to a speed of 90 mph, covering 50 meters in the process. What was the car’s acceleration?
