The reaction time for a car driver is 0.9 s. If the car travetling initially with 36 kmh^-1 is stopped by the driver after observing a signal by the deceleration of 5 ms-2 , the total distance travelled by the car befo1re coming to rest is

The distance travelled by a body is 107.25 m in time 1.5 s. The velocity with correct significant figures is

A package is at rest on a conveyor belt which is initially at rest. The belt is started and moves to the right for 1.3s with a coonstant acceleration of 2m//s^(2). The belt then moves with a constant deceleration and comes to stop after a total displacement of 2.2m. The coefficient of friction between the package and the belt are mu_(s) =0.35 and mu_(k) = 0.25 . The displacement of the package relative to the belt as the belt comes to stop is 317 xx 10^(-x) The value of x is (g = 10 m//s^(2))

A vehicle starts moving in a straight line with an acceleration, a = 4 m//s^(2) , with initial velocity equal to zero. After accelerating for time t_(1) , the vehicle moves uniformly and for time t_(2) , the vehicle finally decelerates for time, t_(1) eventually coming to a stop. The total time taken during the motion is 10s and the average velocity during the motion is 5.1 m/s. The time taken by the vehicle during acceleration is

An object moves in a straight line with deceleration whose magnitude varies with deceleration whose magnitude varies with velocity as 3v^(2//3). If at an initial point, the velocity is 8 m/s, then the distence travelled by the object before it stops is
