1) A car is traveling down the interstate at 37.1 m/s. The driver sees a cop and quickly slows down. If the driver slows to 29.8 m/s in 3 seconds, what is the acceleration of the car?

2) While cleaning you lift an 87.3 N box up to a shelf that is 2.04 m above the ground. How much work was done on the box?

3) A child runs up the stairs and does 1250 J of work. If the child generates 267 W of power how long did it take for the child to run up the stairs?

    1. Acceleration is the change in velocity over time.

    a = Δv / Δt

    a = (29.8 m/s - 37.1 m/s) / 3 s

    a = - 2.43 m/s²

    2. Work equals force times distance.

    W = Fd

    W = (87.3 N) (2.04 m)

    W = 178 J

    3. Power is work per time.

    P = W / t

    267 W = 1250 J / t

    t = 4.68 s
