Current Attempt in Progress A car is traveling around a circular track of 670-ft radius. If the magnitude of its total acceleration is 6.1 ft/sec² at the instant when its speed is 33 mi/hr, determine the rate at at which the car is changing its speed. Answer: at = ±i eTextbook and Media ft/sec²
Two bumper cars at the county fair are sliding toward one another (see figure below). Initially, bumper car 1 is traveling to the east at 5.70 m/s, and bumper car 2 is traveling 78.2° south of west at 4.20 m/s. They collide and stick together, as the driver of one car reaches out and grabs hold of the other driver. The two bumper cars move off together after the collision, and friction is negligible between the cars and the ground. W-O>E Car 2 Car 1 Vii (a) If the masses of bumper cars 1 and 2 are 596 kg and 625 kg respectively, what is the velocity of the bumper cars immediately after the collision? magnitude m/s direction ° east of south (b) What is the kinetic energy lost in the collision?
A driver on a level two-lane highway observes a truck completely blocking the highway. The driver was able to stop her vehicle only 10 ft from the truck. If the driver was driving at 70 mi/h, how far was she from the truck when she first observed it (assume perception-reaction time is 2.0 seconds)? How far was she from the truck at the moment the brakes were applied (use a/g=0.35)?
Initially, the car travels along a straight road with a speed of 29 m/s. If the brakes are applied and the speed of the car is reduced to 19 m/s in 16s, determine the constant deceleration of the car in m per second square.
Car A is traveling at a constant speed vA = 125 km/h at a location where the speed limit is 100 km/h. The police officer in car P observes this speed via radar. At the moment when A passes P, the police car begins to accelerate at the constant rate of 4.0 m/s? until a speed of 168 km/h is achieved, and that speed is then maintained. Determine the distance s required for the police officer to overtake car A. Neglect any nonrectilinear motion of P. A VA P Answer: s = i
Car A is traveling at a location where the speed limit is 100 km/h. The police officer in car P observes this speed via radar. The driver of car A sees and reacts very unwisely to the police car P. Car A is traveling at VA = 126 km/h as it passes P, but over the next 4.4 seconds, the car uniformly accelerates to 147 km/h, after which that speed is maintained. At the moment when A passes P, the police car begins to accelerate at the constant rate of 4.0 m/s² until a speed of 170 km/h is achieved, and that speed is then maintained. Determine the distance s required for the police officer to overtake car A. A Answer: s= i -VA P ! m
In traveling a distance of 3.3 km between points A and D, a car is driven at 86 km/h from A to B for t seconds and 42 km/h from C to D also for t seconds. If the brakes are applied for 4.8 seconds between B and C to give the car a uniform deceleration, calculate t and the distance s between A and B.
