9. A bicycle is to travel on a track with a length of 12 km. (a) The bicycle travels half of the total length at 10 km/h and the other half of the length at 30 km/h. (The transition fron one speed to the other is instantaneous (i.e., the velocity-versus-time graph is discontinuous at that transition point).) Determine the bicycle's average speed and its total travel time. (b) Instead, the bicycle travels this length at 10 km/h during half of...
You are driving to a Tampa Bay Buccaneers game, 150 km from your home. You drive on thehighway at a constant speed of 110 km/h.

(a) A car trip unfolds as follows. It took 15 minutes to get from your driveway to the highway, a distance of five kilometres, what with traffic and stoplights. Once on the highway, you maintained a constant speed of 120 km/h for one hour. Determine your average speed (throughout the time from the start of the trip to the end of the first hour of highway cruising). (b) As soon as the hour ended, you encountered a long construction zone...

A trucking company pays drivers an hourly wage to drive trailer-loads of cargo to destinations. A fully-loaded tractor-trailer rig itself also costs the company an average of $1.25/mile to operate (for fuel, maintenance, insurance, etc.). distant To monitor the safety and whereabouts of drivers and cargo, each truck is equipped with a GPS tracker, which transmits a continuous (second-by-second) record of the truck's position; and a speedometer recorder, which transmits a continuous record of its speed (in mph). And the...
An airplane flies from its home airport to anotler&uiS average speed of 120 miles/hour. It then turns around and flies directly back to its home airport at an average speed of 190 miles/hour. a. How much time did it take the plane to get to the other airport? b. How much time did it take the airplane to return to its home airport? What is the average speed of the airplane for the entire trip? c. Use the position versus...
