Hi, I need help with most of these problems. I am not expecting you to answers my questions, instead I would like to have some tips/hints on the problems. Thank you
FORMULAS TO USE:
Xf = Xi + 1/2(Vxf + Vxi)t
Vxf = Vxi + AxT
Xf = Xi + VxiT + 1/2AxT^2
Vxf^2 = Vxi + 2Ax(Xf - Xi)
Vyf = Vyi + GxT
Yf = Yi + 1/2 (Vyf + Vyi)T
Yf = Yi + VxiT + 1/2 GxT^2
Vyf^2 = Vyi + 2Gx( Yf - Yi )

A truck is stopped for a red light at Ridge Road on Higgins line. At the instant the light turns green, the truck pulls away with a constant acceleration of 2.1 m/s2. A cyclist approaching the truck with a constant velocity of 12.0 m/s is 7.90 m behind the truck when the light turns green. What is the elapsed time from the changing of the light to when the cyclist passes the truck?What is the elapsed time from the changing of the light to when the truck repasses the cyclist? How far has the truck traveled from the stoplight when it repasses the cyclist?

To save fuel, some truck drivers try to maintain a constant speed when possible. A truck traveling at 87.0 km/hr approaches a car stopped at the red light. When the truck is 113.5 meters from the car the light turns green and the car immediately begins to accelerate at 2.60 m/s2 to a final speed of 100.0 km/hr. How close does the truck come to the car assuming the truck does not slow down?How far from the stop light has the car traveled when the truck reaches its closest distance?

The location of a particle (in m) is given by its x, y and z coordinates as function of the time (in s) as:
x = -19+27t and y = -27+21t+11t2 and z = 25-11t-9t2
Calculate the magnitude of the displacement from t = -7.00 s to t = -2.00 s.Calculate the magnitude of the particle's average velocity between t = -7.00 s and t = -2.00 s.Calculate the z-component of the instantaneous velocity at t = 1.00 s?What is the magnitude of the object's acceleration at t = -7.00 s?

A catapult on a cliff launches a large round rock towards a ship on
the ocean below. The rock leaves the catapult from a height H of 31.0 m above sea level, directed at an angle above the horizontal with an unknown speed v0. The projectile remains in flight for 6.00 seconds and travels a horizontal distance D of 170 m. Assuming that air friction can be neglected, calculate the value of the angle (in degrees). Calculate the speed at which the rock is launched.
