1. A truck tractor pulls two trailers, one behind the other, at a constant speed of 100 km/h. It takes 0.600 s for the big rig to completely pass onto a bridge 400 m long. For what duration of time is all or part of the truck-trailer combination on the bridge?

2. A speedboat moving at 30.0 m/s approaches a no-wake buoy marker 100 m ahead. The pilot slows the boat with a constant acceleration of -3.50 m/s2 by reducing the throttle.

(a) How long does it take the boat to reach the buoy?

(b) What is the velocity of the boat when it reaches the buoy?
