A motorist traveling at 12 m/s encounters a deer in the road 39 m ahead. If the maximum acceleration the vehicle’s brakes are ca

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Motorcyclist speed=12 m/s

maximum acceleration $=-6 m/s^2$

distance=39 m

Let x be the distance traveled by motorist in his reaction time

therefore remaining 39-x will be traveled with $-6m/s^2$ acceleration

$v^2-u^2=2as$

s=39-x

v=0

u=12 m/s

$0-12^2=2\left ( -6\right )\left ( 39-x\right )$

x=27 m

Therefore he traveled 27 m in his reaction time

$27=12\times t$

t=2.25 s

(b)If his reaction time is 2.56 sec

then distance traveled in his reaction time

$x_0=12\times 2.56=30.72 m$

Remaining distance 39-30.72=8.28 m

therefore its velocity when it reaches the deer

$v^2-u^2=2as$

$v^2=12^2+2\times \left ( -6\right )\times 8.28=44.64$

v=6.681 m/s

Course hero N4M.6 A board has one end wedged under a rock having a mass of 380 kg and is supported by another rock that touches

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Therefore it is save to carry a 62kg adult

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass $m=380kg$

Height of supporting Rock $X=85cm$

Length of Board $L_r=4.5m$

Mass of board $M_b=22kg$

Mass of adult $M_a=62$

Generally the moment of balance about wedge part about is mathematically given by

$N -Q + R = Mg + mg$

$0.85*N - Mg*2.25 - mg*(2.25 + x) = 0$

$0.85*N = + Mg*2.25 + mg*(2.25 + x)$

where

$N+R=4547$

therefore

$N = 570.70588 + 1608.3529 + 714.823 x$

if N=0 at fallen person

$x=3.04m$

Therefore it is save to carry a 62kg adult
