From Newton's law v^2 = u^2 + 2as where a is the acceleration and s is the distance.  
But to go any further, we need to know how fast the vehicle is accelerating 
 From v = u +at
 We have a = u/t where the final velocity v = 0

 So in one minute acceleration = (35 / 60) / 60 = 0.0097 ms/2. The first
experession in bracket is the initial velocity, u, in metres per seconds. 
 Hence v^2 = (0.583)^2 + 2 (0.0097)(30)
 v^2 = 0.3398 + 0.5826 = 0.9224
 v = âš 0.9224 = 0.960m

A 1060-kg car moving west at 16 m/s collides with and locks onto a 1830-kg stationary car. determine the velocity of the cars ju
iren [92.7K]
M1U1 + M2V2 = (M1+M2)V, where M1 is the mass of the moving car, M2 is the mass of the stationary car, U1 is the initial velocity, and V is the common velocity after collision.
therefore; 
(1060× 16) + (1830 ×0) = (1060 +1830) V
 16960 = 2890 V
      V = 5.869 m/s
The velocity of the cars after collision will be 5.689 m/s

Why do you keep moving forward when you slam on the brakes of your bike?
g100num [7]
Because the act of braking is an example of negative acceleration.
Example: if the rate of braking was say 2 meters per second^2, and the starting velocity was 10 m/s, it would take 5 seconds to come to a stop(during those 5 seconds you would still be moving).
