A car is approaching a stoplight. When the car is 200 m from the stoplight, the light turns yellow. The driver now has three seconds to either come to a stop, or hurry through the intersection before the light turns red. The car's initial velocity is 50 m/s, and it can accelerate at a maximum of 8 m/s^2. Determine if the car can make it through the light.

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length (in m) of a column of water 1.45 km high for a temperature increase of 1.12°c. assume the column is not free to expand sideways. as a model of the ocean, that is a reasonable approximation, as only parts of the ocean very close to
