A 1200 kg car traveling 15 m/s needs to stop in 0.8 seconds to avoid hitting a pedestrian. a.)What impulse must the car receive? b.) What average force does this mean must be applied? c.) What is the three-part name of this force? d.) If a typical tire has a coefficient of friction of 0.6, will the car stop in time?

The driver of a one ton car traveling at 126 km/hr suddenly used his brake to stop before hitting a stationary lorry ahead. After the brakes are applied, a constant kinetic friction force of magnitude 8 kilo Newton acts on the car. Ignore air resistance. (a) At what minimum distance should the brakes be applied to avoid a collision with the other vehicle? (b) If the distance between the vehicles is initially only 30.0 m, at what speed would the...

Traveling at 40.2 m/s, a driver applies the brakes to his fast-moving car and skids out of control on a wet concrete horizontal road. The 2000 kg car is headed directly toward a student waiting to catch a bus to campus who is standing 58.0 m down the road. Luckily, Superman is flying overhead and surveys the situation. Knowing that the coefficient of kinetic friction between rubber and rough wet concrete is .800, he determines that friction alone will not...

A driver traveling at 58 m/s in a car of mass 1100 kg runs into the rear end of a police car of mass 1400 kg, traveling at 25.52 m/s. The collision is completely inelastic, and all motion is restricted to a straight line. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Immediately following the collision, what is the shared velocity of the two cars? Answer in units of m/s. The engines stop working, wheels lock up, and the...

After applying breaks to stop at a stop sign, a 1000 kg car (C) skids (wheels are locked) along the straight flat road (R) for a halt. The car was initially traveling at 15 m/s and it was brought to a complete stop within 3 seconds. Assume, no air resistance. i. Using a force diagram and the definition of the work done, identify if each force does positive, negative, or zero work on the system of the “car and the...
