Kinematics practice problems Answers: 4. A race car is traveling at +76 m/s when is slows down at -9 m/s2 for 4
seconds. What is his new velocity?
5. An alien spaceship is 500 m above the ground and moving at a constant
velocity of 150 m/s upwards. How high above the ground is the ship after 5
Seconds?

The new velocity after 4 s is 40 m/s

The height of the spaceship above the ground after 5 seconds is 1,127.5 m

The given parameters for the first question;

  • initial velocity of the car, u = 76 m/s
  • acceleration of the car, a = - 9 m/s²
  • time of motion, t = 4 s

The new velocity after 4 s is calculated as;

v = u + at

v = 76 + (-9)(4)

v = 76 - 36

v = 40 m/s

(5)

The given parameters;

  • height above the ground, h = 500 m
  • velocity of spaceship, u = 150 m/s
  • time of motion, t = 5

The height of the spaceship above the ground after 5 seconds is calculated as;

[tex]h_y = h_0 + ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\h_y = 500 + (150\times 5) - (0.5\times 9.8 \times 5^2)\\\\h_y = 1,127.5 \ m[/tex]
