Well thank you, I've figured it out and I'm assuming that I just had to take the derivative to get the acceleration, duh. Thanks for all of your help.

I got confused on the acceleration of the car. If an object is changing its velocity -whether by a constant amount or a varying amount - then it is an accelerating object. And an object with a constant velocity is not accelerating. Therefore, the acceleration of the car would be 28(ft/s)/t

I'm not really good at physics so relevant any feedback would be helpful. Here's the question; At the instant a traffic light turns green, a car starts with a constant velocity of 6.0 ft/s. At the same instant a truck, traveling with a constant speed of 34 ft/s, overtakes and passes the car...

Hi all, I have a question about the radius. Is it just me or is the conversion of the radius off by 10. I've done this problem before and I had [(pi*200,000,000)^2/2]300000. Sorry about the notation, I'm new at this.
