An airplane accelerates down a runway at 3.20 m/s2 for 32.8 s until is finally lifts off the ground. Determine the distance traveled before takeoff.

 d = 1720 m

300

Is this object speeding up, slowing down, or constant v?

constant velocity

300

Velocity is negative and acceleration is positive, what is the condition of the object? 

Slowing down

escape velocity from the earths surface is about 7.0 miles/sec. what is that in m/s?

11265.41 m/s 

400

What is kinematics

branch of mechanics that deals with how far, how fast, and how consistent a body moves.

looks at distances, speeds, & accelerations

400

When will the magnitude of one's average velocity be the same as one's average speed

When two objects moving in a straight line

Describe and compare the dot diagrams. 

The first one is moving at a constant velocity. The second one is moving at a constant velocity but slower and the third dot diagram is accelerating.

how do you find the total displacement

(change in x^2 + change in y^2 = R^2)

Describe what is happening in this dot diagram by interval

moving with a constant speed in the first time interval. then abruptly decelerates to a stop. remains at rest for sometime and then moves with a constant speed, slower than the first speed.
