Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities are capable of modest accelerations. The magni

tude of the maximum acceleration is typically 1.3 m/s2 , but the driver will usually maintain a constant acceleration that is less than the maximum. A train travels through a congested part of town at 4.0m/s . Once free of this area, it speeds up to 13m/s in 8.0 s . At the edge of town, the driver again accelerates, with the same acceleration, for another 16 s to reach a higher cruising speed.
What is the final speed?
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

During the first phase of acceleration we have:
v o = 4 m/s;  t = 8 s; v = 13 m/s, a = ?
v = v o + a * t
13 m/s = 4 m / s + a * 8 s
a * 8 s = 9 m/s
a = 9 m/s : 8 s
a = 1.125 m/s²
The final speed:
v = ?;  v o = 13 m/s; a = 1.125 m/s² ;  t = 16 s
v = v o + a * t
v = 13 m/s + 1.125 m/s² * 16 s
v = 13 m/s + 18 m/s = 31 m/s

A passenger on your boat falls overboard. what should you do first?
yarga [219]
The very first thing that you should do when a passenger on your boat falls overboard is to throw a PFD or also known as a Personal Flotation Device. This would include anything that can help the passenger to float. But this step would differ, only if the passenger is not wearing a lifevest.
