Amotorist drives along a straight road at a constant speed of 15.0 m/s. just as she passes a parked motorcycle police officer, the officer starts to accelerate at 2.00 m/s2 to overtake her. assuming the officer maintains this acceleration,
(a) determine the time it takes the police officer to reach the motorist. find (b) the speed and (c) the total displacement of the officer as he overtakes the motorist.

p3. the speed of a bullet as it travels down the barrel of a rifle toward the opening is given by v = (–5.00 × 107)t2 + (3.00 × 105)t, where v is in meters per second and t is in seconds. the acceleration of the bullet just as it leaves the barrel is zero.
(a) determine the acceleration and position of the bullet as a function of time when the bullet is in the barrel.
(b) determine the length of time the bullet is accelerated.
(c) find the speed at which the bullet leaves the barrel. (d) what is the length of the barrel?

(d) what is the length of the barrel?

p4. a novice golfer on the green takes three strokes to sink the ball. the successive displacements are 4.00 m to the north, 2.00 m northeast, and 1.00 m at 30.0° west of south. starting at the same initial point, an expert golfer could make the hole in what single displacement?
