v = vo + at
x = xo + vot + (1/2)at^2
v^2 = vo^2 + 2a(x - xo)
Two cars which are separated by 2.03 km are moving in the same direction. The car in front is moving at a constant velocity of 45.06 km/hr, while the second car is moving at a constant velocity of 59.75 km/hr. Determine the distance (in km) covered by the second car at the moment it overtakes the first car?

A whistle you used to call your hunting dog has a frequency of 21 kHz, but your dog is ignoring it. You suspect the whistle may not be working, but you can't hear sounds above 20 kHz. To test it, you ask a friend to blow the whistle and hop on his moped. In which direction should he ride (toward or away from you) to know if the whistle is working? Explain in words.

A circuit diagram consists of two batteries, ε₁ and ε₂ which are connected to four resistors is shown in Figure 3. The values of resistance are R₁ = 20 Ω, R₂ = 15 Ω and R₃ = R₄ = 10 Ω. Given ε₂ = 10 V and the potential difference, Vₐ - Vᵇ = 3.50 V, determine

i) the currents, I₁, I₂ and I₃ in the circuit, and
ii) the value of ε₁.
