 A plane is travelling at 315 ms north when it passes through a dense cloud and slows down to a velocity of 265 ms for safety precautions.

The plane did not change direction and travelled 2.5 km while it was slowing down.

Using north as the positive direction for all calculations, determine:

  1. the change in velocity of the plane.   (1 mark)

  2. the plane's acceleration.   (2 marks)

  3. the time over which the plane slowed down.   (2 marks)

A model car of mass 2.0 kg is propelled from rest by a rocket motor that applies a constant horizontal force of 4.0 N, as shown below. Assume that friction is negligible.
 

With the same rocket motor, the car accelerates from rest for 10 seconds.

Calculate the the final speed of the model car?   (2 marks)
