If it takes t seconds to reach the car, then the distance d is 3.9t.

The bear's distance from the tourist's starting point is
6t-23

For maximum d, we set the equations equal to each other:
3.9t=6t-23
\Rightarrow -2.1t=-23
\Rightarrow t=\frac{23}{2.1}
so the distance is
d=3.9(\frac{23}{2.1})\approx42.741\ m

You bail out of a helicopter and immediately open your parachute, so your downward velocity satisfies the initial value problem.

<h3>What is velocity ?</h3>

Velocity is the rate of change in direction of an item in motion as seen from a specific point of view and as measured by a specific unit of time. In kinematics, the area of classical mechanics that studies how bodies move, velocity is a fundamental idea.

A physical vector quantity called velocity requires both magnitude and direction to be defined. Speed, a coherently derived unit whose quantity is measured in the SI (metric system) as metres per second, is the scalar absolute value (magnitude) of velocity. For instance, "5 meters per second" is a scalar while "5 meters per second east" is a vector.

MrRa [10]

Incomplete question as the car's  speed is missing.I have assumed car's  speed as 6.0m/s.The complete question is here

An amusement park ride consists of a car moving in a vertical circle on the end of a rigid boom of negligible mass. The combined weight of the car and riders is 6.00 kN, and the radius of the circle is 15.0 m. At the top of the circle, (a) what is the force FB on the car from the boom (using the minus sign for downward direction) if the car's speed is v 6.0m/s

Answer:

F_{B}=-5755N

Explanation:

Set up force equation

∑F=ma

∑F=W+FB

\frac{mv^{2} }{R}=W+F_{B}\\  F_{B}=\frac{mv^{2} }{R}-W\\F_{B}=\frac{(W/g)v^{2} }{R}-W\\F_{B}=\frac{(6000N/9.8m/s^{2} )(6m/s)^{2} }{(15m)}-6000N\\F_{B}=-5755N

The minus sign for downward direction
