NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. At an intersection car 8 was traveling south and car A was traveling 30° north of east when they slammed into each other. Upon investigation, it was found that after the crash, the two cars got stuck and skidded off at an angle of 10° north of east. Each driver claimed that he was going at the speed limit of 50 km/h and that he tried to slow down, but couldn't avoid the crash because the other driver was going a lot faster. The masses of cars A and B were 1650 kg and 1350 kg, respectively. 30 10° Which car was going faster? (You must provide an answer before moving to the next part) (Click to select) was going faster.

As a city planner, you receive complaints from local residents about the safety of nearby roads and streets. One complaint concerns a stop sign at the corner of Pine Street and 1st Street. Residents complain that the speed limit in the area (55 mph) is too high to allow vehicles to stop in time. Under normal conditions this is not a problem, but when fog rolls in visibility can reduce to only 155 ft. Since fog is a common occurrence in this region, you decide to investigate. The state highway department states that the effective coefficient of friction between a rolling wheel and asphalt ranges between 0.689 and 0.770, whereas the effective coefficient of friction between a skidding (locked) wheel and asphalt ranges between 0.450 and 0.617. Vehicles of all types travel on the road, from small VW bugs weighing 1210 lb to large trucks weighing 8640 lb. Considering that some drivers will brake properly when slowing down and others will skid to stop, calculate the minimum and maximum…
A standard Ford F150 has a standard tire size of 25.7 inches in diameter. You decided to replace the standard tires with a tire with a diameter of 28.2 inches without updating the onboard computer. Last week you were stopped for speeding on the highway where the speed limit is 65 mph. With the change in tires, how fast was the truck actually traveling when the speedometer read 65 mph? If you had used 24 inch tires, what would the actual speed have been if the speedometer read 65 mph?
An airport wishes to send out a rescue crew. Which direction and how far should this crew fly to go directly to a plane which made an emergency landing if the condition is this: the craft left the airport in Cebu and flew 170 km at 68 degrees east of north and then changed direction to fly 230 km at 48 degrees south of east, after which it made an immediate emergency landing in a pasture?

In downtown Chicago, the east-west blocks are 400 ft long while the north-south blocks are 280 ft long. Because of the many one-way streets, it can be challenging to get around. Veronica starts at the corner of Dearborn and Ohio Streets. She drives four blocks north to Superior, two blocks east to Wabash, then a block south to get to her destination at Wabash and Huron. What is the straight-line distance from her starting point?
A barge is adrift. Two tug boats attach cables to the barge to tow it to safety. The figure is provided. Barge 7 mph 25° 6 mph resultant speed: Tug 2 Tug 1 Tug 1 pulls due east at a speed of 6 miles per hour. Tug 2 pulls 25° north of east at a speed of 7 miles per hour.

A sailboat sails from Marblehead Harbor directly east for 45 nautical miles, then 60 degree south of east for 20 nautical miles, returns to an easterly heading for 30 nautical miles, and sails 30 degreeeast of north for 10 nautical miles, then west for 62 nautical miles. At that time the boat becomes becalmed and the auxiliary engine fails to start. The crew decides to notify the Coast Guard of their position. What is their position?
