thank you for all your help :)

Hey! For a lab, I have to make a few graphs, I just need some clarification. Please correct me if I'm wrong. For a D-T graph, where velocity is constant, the line will be straight. (Diagonal.) For a V-T graph, where velocity is constant, the line will be straight. (Horizontal) ^ Confused...

Is this considered partially right? 0.006km/3600 seconds?

Now I got -0.1296.. Kinda on the right track. I did -0.006/(0.36^2)

Oh, so I have to square the seconds in the speed part?

Now I just confused 2 questions together. Forget this whole thing, it's a flop. =( I'll ask my teacher.

How did you get that?

Oh sorry for writing 90 in the first post, that was a typo. Should be 80km. Okay so it's 80km/h. I converted that -5.0m/s into km/^s by doing this: -5/1000 = - 0.005 Then I multiplied this by 60.. But now I'm getting -0.3. x_x Ahh, can anyone thoroughly help me? This is so frustrating! I am...

It says 80km on my sheet. But yeah, that is the formula I am using. (I do v1+v2 first, and then divide it by 2)

Homework Statement You are traveling at 60km/h when all of a sudden you see a pink elephant which is 0.125km down the road. Your car can slow down at a rate of -5.0m/s^2. If it takes you 20 m of distance to react and hit the brake, how far will you be from the elephant when you stop...

It's right ? D = (V1 + v2/2) x T

Oops speed over acceleration is actually 80km/h over -0.36km/h, but that still gives me the wrong answer..

Homework Statement What distance is required to stop a car going 90km/h if the car can stop with an acceleration of -6.0m/s2? Homework Equations a = v2-v1/t d = (v1+v2/2)t The Attempt at a Solution I'm thinking first we have to solve for t. Which would be the speed divided by...

Hello, I am sorry for removing the template but it is not an actual problem that I need help with. Well it is, but it should be pretty quick and straight forward. The problem is located here: http://www.cdli.ca/courses/math3103/unit05_org01_ilo04/images/3-less9.gif (It's a bit difficult...

That confuses me even more. What does R stand for?
