Speedy Sue, driving at 34.0 m/s, enters a one-lane tunnel. She then observes a slow-moving van 160 m ahead traveling at 5.20 m/s

. Sue applies her brakes but can accelerate only at −1.80 m/s2 because the road is wet. Will there be a collision?

Answer:

there will be collision

Explanation:

v_{s} =  speed of sue = 34 m/s

v_{v} = speed of van = 5.20 m/s

v_{sv} = speed of sue relative to van  = v_{s} - v_{v} = 34 - 5.20 = 28.8 m/s

d_{s} = stopping distance after brakes are applied

D = distance between sue and van = 160 m

v_{f} = final speed of sue = 0 m/s

a = acceleration = - 1.80 m/s²

Using the kinematics equation

v_{f}^{2} = v_{o}^{2} + 2 a d_{s}

0^{2} = 28.8^{2} + 2 (1.80) d_{s}

d_{s} = 230.4 m

Since  d_{s} < D

hence there will be collision
