Mr. Turner is driving through downtown Houston at 35 MPH (15.56 m/s). This is above the posted speed limit and there are cars parked alongside the curb in the lane next to Mr. Turner. Of course, a large delivery truck ahead looks like it is parked and driverless, but the driver's door swings open into the lane ahead of Mr. Turner. Mr. Turner's reaction time is 3/4th's of a second and the stopping distance at his speed is 1.7 meters. The driver exiting the delivery truck is 13.3 meters ahead. Can Mr. Turner stop in time? What is the vehicle's acceleration when the brakes are applied? How far will the vehicle travel before Mr. Turner engages the brake?

(I need someone to explain this to me)

Arunner is jogging at a steady 3.6 km/hr. when the runner is 2.9 km from the finish line, a bird begins flying from the runner to the finish line at 14.4 km/hr (4 times as fast as the runner). when the bird reaches the finish line, it turns around and flies back to the runner. even though the bird is a dodo, we will assume that it occupies only one point in space, i.e., a zero-length bird. how far does the bird travel? (b) after this first encounter, the bird then turns around and flies from the runner back to the finish line, turns around again and flies back to the runner. the bird repeats the back and forth trips until the runner reaches the finish line. how far does the bird travel from the beginning? (i.e. include the distance traveled to the first encounter)
