An initially motionless test car is accelerated uniformly to 115 km/h in 8.83 seconds before striking a simulated deer. The car

is in contact with the faux fawn for 0.995 seconds, after which the car is measured to be traveling at 60.0 km/h. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the car before the collision?

We know the equation of motion v = u+ at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time taken.

In this case Final velocity before collision = 115 km/hr = 115*5/18 = 31.94 m/s

Time taken by car to reach this velocity = 8.83 seconds

Initial velocity = 0 m/s

v = u +at

31.94 = 0 + a*8.83

a = 3.62 m/s^2

So acceleration of car just before collision = 3.62 m/s^2

Satellites travel at 18,000 miles per hour. ...

A satellite gets better fuel economy than a Prius.

If you put all of the data that our satellites collect in a year on DVDs, it would form a stack nearly 4 times the height of the Empire State Building.

There are over 2,500 satellites in orbit around the Earth.

const2013 [10]

Answer:

fr = ½ m v₀²/x

Explanation:

This exercise the body must be on a ramp so that a component of the weight is counteracted by the friction force.

The best way to solve this exercise is to use the energy work theorem

            W = ΔK

Where work is defined as the product of force by distance

           W = fr x cos 180

The angle is because the friction force opposes the movement

          Δk =K_{f} –K₀

          ΔK = 0 - ½ m v₀²

We substitute

         - fr x = - ½ m v₀²      

           fr = ½ m v₀²/x
