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...

A driver on Route 15 is traveling at 50 mph (~22 m/s) when they see a dog in the road ahead. The driver’s reaction time to apply the brakes is 1.5 s. As the driver nears the dog they honk the horn and thankfully the dog runs to safety on the side of the road. The car finally comes to a stop 5 s after applying the brakes and 4 m past where the dog had been standing. How far...

A car is traveling along a straight road at a velocity of +35.0 m/s when its engine cuts out. For the next ten seconds the car slows down, and its average acceleration is a1. For the next five seconds the car slows down further, and its average acceleration is a2. The velocity of the car at the end of the fifteen-second period is +24.2 m/s. The ratio of the average acceleration values is a1/a2 = 1.78. Find the velocity of...
