S2 A television car show is looking for a race track to test a super car which can have maximum straight line acceleration of 5m/s² and maximum braking deceleration of 15m/s². The goal is to start from rest and accelerate at the maximum acceleration in a straight line until the car reaches a speed of 45m/s(Approximately 100miles/hr). The car will then immediately apply the brakes at the maximum deceleration until the car comes to a stop. What is the minimum length of a straight racetrack necessary for this test?

Earth's gravity pulls everything downward It pulls down each kilogram with a force of 9.8 Newtons. On a force table, a thread has a brass cylinder attached to it weighing 100 grams. If Earth's gravity pulls this weight (0.1 kg) downward with 0.98 N of force, how much weight is applied by Earth's gravity to the brass cylinder hanging on the thread?
