Suppose a car can accelerate at 1m/s2. How large a break in traffic is needed to enter a highway where cars?

Vivian C asked: Suppose a car can accelerate at 1m/s2. How large a break in traffic is needed to enter a highway where cars are moving a 20m/s if the drive wants to avoid forcing the next car to slow down or to approach closer than 25m?

How the car overtakes a bike when both are travelling at a same speed?

asama asked: I want to know how the car overtakes a bike even when both are traveling at a same speed.I will put my question in a easier way.

Ex:A bike and car travels at 60mph starting at the same point and time . My question is whether both will reach 60miles after one hour simultaneously?. [...]

What is the acceleration of the boat just after the rain starts?

RelientKayers asked: A boat of mass 250 kg is coasting, with its engine in neutral, through the water at speed 3.00 m/s when it starts to rain. The rain is falling vertically, and it accumulates in the boat at the rate of 10.0 kg/hr.

The drag is proportional to the square of the speed of the [...]
