A car traveling at 60 km / h can brake and stop in a distance d = 20 m (figure a). If the car travels twice as fast, that is, 120 km / h, what will be the distance braking (figure b)? Assume that the maximum braking force is approximately regardless of its speed
You have put a sonar device at the top of a frictionless inclined plane, as shown in the diagram below. That device allows you to measure the distance an object is from the device, as well as the speed and the acceleration of that object. If we decide that the origin (h = 0) is at the sonar device, we want to know what the height change is as we slide down the incline. 0 For an angle below the horizontal of 6.46, we see that our object has slid a distance 1.13 m, as measured along the incline itself. Calculate the height change in meters - and report your answer as a negative number. (This value would be useful for calculating the change in gravitational potential energy, as we will do in the lab.) h=o 10% O i 26 QUATU 99+ hp X 55 83°F 3:11 PM 10/16/2022 Ctrl 0
Michael Jordan was said to have a hang-time of 3.0 seconds (at least according to a popular NIKE commercial). Use kinematic equations to determine the height to which MJ could leap if he were wearing NIKE shoes and had a hang-time of 3.0 seconds.
