A car travels north at 20.7 m/s for 12.1 min. It then travels south at 43.3 m/s for 29.7 min. Instruction: enter your responses below using 3 significant digits using scientific notation (0.00E#) a) What is the total distance the car travels? m. b) What is the displacement of the car? (A northern displacement is positive and a southern displacement is negative.) m.

A car is traveling due north at $18.1 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$. Find the velocity of the car after $7.50 \mathrm{s}$ if its acceleration is (a) $1.30 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ due north or $(\mathrm{b}) 1.15 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ due south.
$\cdot$ A car is traveling due north at 23.6 $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$ . Find the velocity of the car after 7.10 $\mathrm{s}$ if its acceleration is (a) 1.30 $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ due north, or $(\mathrm{b}) 1.15 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ due south.
