15. A car is traveling at 50 mi/h on a straight horizontal highway. The driver suddenly slams on the brakes to stop the car. a) When the road is dry, the coefficient of friction between road and tires is µ, = 0.6. Calculate the minimum distance (in meters) in which the car can come to rest. b) On a rainy day, when the road is wet, the coefficient of friction between road and tires is µ, = 0.1. What is the minimum stopping distance (in meters) now? Comment: Modern cars are equipped with anti-lock braking systems (ABS). The ABS prevents the wheels from completely locking up. When the wheels lock up completely, they begin to slide on the road and thus experience kinetic friction. When the wheels do not lock up completely, they experience rolling friction. In this context, rolling friction can be approximated as static friction.
This first part is at a angle of 30 degrees and it's 3 meters long. The other is at 45 degrees and it's 4 meters long. The entire ramp sits on a table that is 5 meters high. The first part is frictionless. The second part has a kinetic friction coefficient of 1. Assume that an object starts from rest on the first part and slides onto the second and then flies into the air exhibiting projectile motion under gravity. A) How far from the edge of the table will the object hit the floor? B) Total time from start to finish? C) Speed at the end of ramp 1? D) speed and velocity at the end of ramp 2? E) speed, velocity, angle when it impacts the floor?
