Question
I need help answering these questions please
1. On the last worksheet we found that a 2016 Lamborghini has a maximum acceleration of 10.3 m/s². If
the gas pedal is applied maximally, how far will it travel as it goes from 0 to 60 mph?
2. The car's brakes and tires provide up to 12.7 m/s² of deceleration on a dry road. How long will it take
to slow down from 60mph to 30mph if the driver jams on the brakes?
3. A particle's position along the x-axis as a function of time is given by x(t) = 7.0- 12t + 2.5t²
where x is in meters and t is in seconds.
a) Determine this particle's initial position, its initial velocity, and its acceleration. You can compare it to
a kinematics equation or simply use calculus.
