As the driver steps on the gas pedal, a car of mass 1 160 kg accelerates from rest. During the first few seconds of motion, the car’s acceleration increases with time according to the expression a = 1.16t - 0.210t2 + 0.240t3where t is in seconds and a is in m/s2. (a) What is the change in kinetic energy of the car during the interval from t = 0 to t = 2.50 s? (b) What is the minimum average power output of the engine over this time interval? (c) Why is the value in part (b) described as the minimum value?
A 1800 kg car stopped at a traffic light is struck from the rear by a 900kg car and the two become entangled. If the smaller car was moving at 20.0 m/s before the collision, what is the speed of the entangled cars after collision?
