Let u = the speed of the car at the instant when braking begins.
The braking distance is s = 62.3 m, the acceleration is a = -5.9 m/s², and the braking duration is t = 4.15 s.
Use the formula s = ut + (1/2)at² to obtain
(u m/s)*(4.15 s) + 0.5*(-5.9 m/s²)*(4.5 s)² = (62.3 m)
4.15u = 62.3 + 50.8064 = 113.1064
u = 27.2546 m/s
Let v m/s be the speed with which the car strikes the tree.
Then
v = 27.2546 - 5.9*4.15
= 2.7696 m/s
Answer: 2.77 m/s (nearest hundredth)

Answer:
C. Overcome Friction
Explanation:
When using any machine usually those with moving parts, you may notice heat forming near the areas where most movement occurs. As friction continues, more energy is used up and released as heat. For that reason, the efficiency of a machine will forever be less than 100%
