A train which is traveling at 73mi/hr applies its brakes as it reaches point A and slows down with a constant deceleration. Its decreased velocity is observed to be 56mi/hr as it passes a point 1/2mi beyond A. A car moving at 45mi/hr passes point B at the same instant that the train reaches point A. In an unwise effort to beat the train to the crossing, the driver "steps on the gas." Calculate the constant acceleration a that the car must have in order to beat the train to the crossing by 3.9sec and find the velocity v of the car as it reaches the crossing.

(a) assume the equation x = at^3 + bt describes the motion of a particular object, with x having the dimension of length and t having the dimension of time. determine the dimensions of the constants a and b. (use the following as necessary: l and t, where l is the unit of length and t is the unit of time.) (b) determine the dimensions of the derivative dx/dt = 3at^2 + b. (use the following as necessary: l and t, where l is the unit of length and t is the unit of time.)

The freezing and boiling point of a substance changes as the air pressure around it changes. for example, at a lower air pressure (higher altitude) it is easier for water molecules to escape from liquid into the air. in a high altitude city such as denver, colorado compared to a sea-level city such as houston, texas, water
