You are an engineer in charge of designing a new generation of elevators for a prospective upgrade to the Empire State Building. Before the state legislature votes on funding for the project, they would like you to prepare a report on the benefits of upgrading the elevators. One of the numbers that they have requested is the time it will take the elevator to go from the ground floor to the 102nd floor observatory. They are unlikely to approve the project unless the new elevators make the trip much faster than the old elevators. If state law mandates that elevators cannot accelerate more than 23.90⁢ m/s2 or travel faster than 19.3 m/s, what is the minimum time in which an elevator can travel the 373 m from the ground floor to the observatory floor? minimum travel time: ?

Miles wants to chase a truck that is going at a speed of 25.0 kph, and thus starts accelerating from rest at 4.00 m/s. Caesar, sensing that Miles wants to steal property, and seeing him when he is 100.0 m away from him, rides a police car and starts accelerating at 10.0 m/s. Once Caesar’s car catches Miles, what is the distance traveled by the truck since Caesar started chasing Miles?

As a city planner, you receive complaints from local residents about the safety of nearby roads and streets. One complaint concerns a stop sign at the corner of Pine Street and 1st Street. Residents complain that the speed limit in the area (55 mph)(55 mph) is too high to allow vehicles to stop in time. Under normal conditions this is not a problem, but when fog rolls in visibility can reduce to only 155 ft.155 ft. Since fog is a common occurrence in this region, you decide to investigate. The state highway department states that the effective coefficient of friction between a rolling wheel and asphalt ranges between 0.8420.842 and 0.941,0.941, whereas the effective coefficient of friction between a skidding (locked) wheel and asphalt ranges between 0.5500.550 and 0.754.0.754.

Mr. Pascual and Mr. Reyes decide to go to Batangas using a car and a motorcycle, respectively. They agree to meet at UST st so that they will start traveling at the same time. However, at the time of their meet-up, Mr. Reyes is late and he said Mr. Pascual that he will catch up. Mr. Pascual then left UST and start to travel at an average speed of 45.5 kph. After 19 minutes, Mr. Reyes arrived at UST and started to travel to batangas at an average speed of 67.81 kph. What is the total distance traveled in kilometers by Mr. Reyes by the time he catch up with Mr. Pascual? NOTE: The reference point will be at UST

You get pulled over for running a red light. $500 fıne. When you get to court, you explain that it wasn't your fault. You were traveling toward the light, and the red light blue-shifted to green. The judge (who knows physics) offers to drop the red light violation (saving you $ 500), if you will pay a fine for speeding of $ 1 for every mile/hour over the speed limit (55 mph). How much would you pay for speeding, and is it a better deal than the red light ticket?
Please Answer 2 and 3 only. Thank youuu. 1. Each spring there is a race up 86 floors of the 102-storey Empire State Building in New York City. If you were able to climb 2 steps per second, how long would it take in minutes to reach the 86th floor if each floor is 14 ft high and each step is about 9 inches? 2. In problem above, what was the racer’s speed (or pace) in minute/mile for the race? 3. Find the distance in meters that a mass traveling at 600 cm/s will cover in 0.016 h.
You are to drive to an interview in another city at a distance of 300km on an expressway. The interview is 11:15 in the morning and you plan to drive at 100kph so you leave at 8 in the morning to allow some extra time. You drive at that speed for the first 100km, but then construction work forces you to slow to 40kph for 40km. What would be the least speed needed for the rest of the trip to arrive in time for the interview?
Modeling with periodic functions. A Ferris wheel is 30 meters in diameter and boarded from a platform that is 1 meters above the ground. The six o'clock position on the Ferris wheel is level with the loading platform. The wheel completes 1 full revolution in 4 minutes.
