Chapter 2, Problem 77P
You are traveling in your car at 20 m/s a distance of 20 m behind a car traveling at the same speed. The driver of the other car slams on the brakes to stop for a pedestrian who is crossing the street. Will you hit the car? Your reaction time is 0.60 s. The maximum acceleration of each car is 9.0 m/s2.
