- February 3, 2009, was a very snowy day along Interstate 69 just outside of Indianapolis, Indiana. As a result of the slippery conditions and low visibility (50 yards or less), there was an enormous accident involving approximately 30 vehicles, including cars, tractor-trailers, and even a fire truck. Many witnesses said that people were driving too fast for the conditions and were too close together. In this problem, we explore two rules of thumb for driving in such conditions. The first is to drive at a speed that is half of what it would be in ideal conditions. The other is the 8-second rule: Watch the vehicle in front of you as it passes some object such as a street sign, and you should pass that same object 8 seconds later. On a dry road, the 8-second rule is replaced by a 3-second rule. a. Assume vehicles on a slippery interstate highway follow both rules. What is the distance between the vehicles? b. If a driver followed the first rule of thumb, driving at a lower speed, but used the 3-second rule instead of the 8-second rule, what is the distance between the vehicles? How does that distance compare with the visibility on the day of the accident? c. Suppose drivers do not follow either rule of thumb for slippery conditions. What is the distance between vehicles? How does that distance compare with the visibility on that day? d. Suppose a driver was not obeying either rule of thumb when she sees a tractor-trailer that stopped on the highway. She presses on her brakes, locking the wheels, and her car crashes into the truck. Estimate the magnitude of the impulse exerted on her car. e. Estimate the impulse on the car in part (d) had the driver followed both rules of thumb for slippery conditions instead of ignoring them.arrow_forwarda a resistive force of magnitude (kmv - ma) N, where k and a are constants.

Suppose he falls a distance of 28.5 m in 2.5 s. Assuming he starts from rest, answer the following questions. a. What is Lukes velocity 2.5 s after he starts to fall? b. What is the constant acceleration due to gravity, experienced by Luke, on Cloud City? Use an upward-pointing y axis.arrow_forward

Repeat the calculations of Example 2.7 (acceleration for first 6 miles, time of timed mile, acceleration for last 6 miles) for the Jeantaud car.

- A falcon is soaring over a prairie, flying at a height of 45.0 m with a speed of 12.9 m/s. The falcon spots a mouse running along the ground and dives to catch its dinner.
