A car is travelling on a straight highway where the speed limit is 110 km/h. You are watching it from a point 10 meters away from the road, and at the instance when the car is 20 meters directly away from you the angle that your line of sight makes with a perpendicular to the road increases at the rate of 3 4 radians/sec. Is the car breaking the speed limit? Fully justify your answer. (Note that 1 m/s = 18 5 km/h.)

The existing posted speed limit on a section of highway is 88 km/h and studies have shown that the current 85th percentile speed is 104 km/h. If the posted speed limit is to be increased to the current 85th percentile speed, what should be the increase in the radius of a curve that is just adequate for the existing posted speed limit? Assume a superelevation rate of 0.08 for the existing curve and for the redesigned curve.

The car with 20000 N weight increases its speed uniformly from 18 km/h to 90 km/h in 40 s up the inclined rough road with 15 angle and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the car and the ground is k = 0.5. Determine: ▪ the maximum power that must be supplied by the car engine ( = 0.8), ▪ the average power supplied by the engine. ▪ the initial kinetic energy T1 ▪ the final kinetic energy T2 ▪...

Centripetal Acceleration: A car moving with a constant speed of 80 km/h enters a circular, flat curve with a radius of curvature of 0.50 km.  If the friction between the road and the car’s tires can support a centripetal acceleration of 1.20 m/s2, without slipping, does the car navigate the curve safely, or does it fly off the road? Perform calculations to justify your answer. Be sure to perform all the necessary dimensional conversions to mks units.

A car has a mass of 2000 kg which was travelling east but now has collided with truck with mass of 2500 kg which was travelling north. After the collision we see that the cars are stuck together and have slid 7.7 meters northeast at a 40 degree angle. The car driver claims the accident happened because the truck was speeding; the truck driver claims the car was speeding. The posted speed limit is 35 miles/hour. Determine from the location...

An automobile is traveling on a long, straight highway at a steady 77.0 mi/h when the driver sees a wreck 200 m ahead. At that instant, she applies the brakes (ignore reaction time). Between her and the wreck are two different surfaces. First there is 100 m of ice, where the deceleration is only 1.30 m/s2 . From then on, it is dry concrete, where the deceleration is a more normal 7.60 m/s2 Part A. What was the car’s speed...
