By definition we have that the final speed is:
 Vf² = Vo² + 2 * a * d
 Where,
 Vo: Final speed
 a: acceleration
 d: distance.
 We cleared this expression the acceleration:
 a = (Vf²-Vo²) / (2 * d)
 Substituting the values:
 a = ((0) ^ 2- (60) ^ 2) / ((2) * (123) * (1/5280))
 a = -77268 mi / h ^ 2
 its stopping distance on a roadway sloping downward at an angle of 17.0 ° is:
 First you must make a free body diagram and see the acceleration of the car:
 g = 32.2 feet / sec ^ 2
 a = -77268 (mi / h ^ 2) * (5280/1) (feet / mi) * (1/3600) ^ 2 (h / s) ^ 2
 a = -31.48 feet / sec ^ 2
 A = a + g * sin (θ) = -31.48 + 32.2 * sin17.0
 A = -22.07 feet / sec ^ 2
 Clearing the braking distance:
 Vf² = Vo² + 2 * a * d
 d = (Vf²-Vo²) / (2 * a)
 Substituting the values:
 d = ((0) ^ 2- (60 * (5280/3600)) ^ 2) / (2 * (- 22.07))
 d = 175.44 feet
 answer:
 its stopping distance on a roadway sloping downward at an angle of 17.0 ° is 175.44 feet

Ivenika [448]
Longitude was. Determining longitude requires knowing the exact time of day, which was difficult prior to modern clocks. The source book below tells the story of Englishman John Harrison's life-long pursuit of building a reliable clock and its importance to navigation.

Answer:

given -

initial velocity = 4.09 m/s

acceleration = 1.01 m/s²

distance = 23.4 m

time = ?

using second formula of motion,

s = ut + 1/2 at².

where, s = distance

u = initial velocity

t = time

a = acceleration

23.4 = 4.09(t) + 1/2(1.01)(t) ²

23.4 = 4.09t + 2.02t²

2.02t² + 4.09t - 23.4 = 0

solving the equation by using quadratic formula

Use the standard form, ax² + bx + c = 0 , to find the coefficients of our equation, :

a = 2.02

b = 4.09

c = -23.4

we get t=2.539 or t= -4.563

time cannot be negative so

t= 2.539 sec = 2.6 Sec is the answer
