Write the answers in the notebook

1. An aircraft travels 1000m in 4.0s. What is its speed?

2. A car travels 150km in 2.0 hours. What is its speed?(show the correct units)
3. An interplanetary spacecraft is moving at 20,000m/s. How far will it travel in one day? (give answer in km)
4. How long will it take a coach travelling at 90 km/h to travel 300 km along a highway?
5. A car sets off from traffic lights. It reaches a speed of 27m/s in 18s. What is its acceleration?
6. A train, initially moving at 12m/s, speeds up to 36m/s in 120s. What is its acceleration?
7. A runner accelerates from rest with an acceleration of 4.0m/s 2 for 2.3s. What will her speed be at the end of this
time?
8. A car can accelerate at 5.6 m/s2. Starting from rest, how long will it take to reach a speed of 24.0m/s?
9. A bus travels 1425m in 75s.
a. What is its speed?

What other piece of information do we need in order to state its velocity?
