Kinematics practice problems:

1. Georgia is jogging with a velocity of 4 m/s when she accelerates at 2 m/s2 for
3 seconds. How fast is Georgia running now?

field towards the 50 yard line, and runs for 3 seconds at 8 yd/s. What is his
current position (in yards)?
3. A cat is moving at 18 m/s when it accelerates at 4 m/s2 for 2 seconds. What is
his new velocity?

seconds. What is his new velocity?

velocity of 150 m/s upwards. How high above the ground is the ship after 5
seconds?

7. A squirrel is 5.0 m away from you while moving at a constant velocity of 3
m/s away from you. How far away is the squirrel after 5 seconds?
8. A ball is dropped off a very tall canyon ledge. Gravity accelerates the ball at
9.8 m/s2. How fast is the ball traveling after 5 seconds?
9. During a race, a dragster is 200 m from the finish line when something goes
wrong and it stops accelerating. It travels at a constant velocity of 45 m/s for
3 seconds to try to finish the race. How far from the finish line is the dragster
after 3 seconds?
10. A dog is 60 m away while moving at a constant velocity of 10 m/s towards
you. Where is the dog after 4 seconds?

the ground, reaching a maximum height of 35 meters. Neglecting air
resistance, what is the balls velocity when it hits the ground?
12. Two kittens are on opposite sides of a field, 250 m apart. Kitten A runs at a
constant speed of 25 m/s due east on a collision course with kitten B, which is
traveling west at 12 m/s. How much time elapses before the two kittens
collide?
