Answer:

The car stops in 7.78s and does not spare the child.

Explanation:

In order to know if the car stops before the distance to the child, you take into account the following equation:

x=x_o+v_ot-\frac{1}{2}at^2        (1)

vo: initial speed of the car = 45km/h

a: deceleration of the car = 2 m/s^2

t: time

xo: initial distance to the child = 25m

x: final distance to the child = 0m

It is necessary that the solution of the equation (1) for time t are real.

You first convert the initial speed to m/s, then replace the values of the parameters and solve the quadratic polynomial for t:

45\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1h}{3600s}*\frac{1000m}{1km}=12.5\frac{m}{s}

0=25+12.5t-2t^2\\\\2t^2-12.5t-25=0\\\\t_{1,2}=\frac{-(-12.5)\pm \sqrt{(-12.5)^2-4(2)(-25)}}{2(2)}\\\\t_{1,2}=\frac{12.25\pm 18.87}{4}\\\\t_1=7.78s\\\\t_2=-1.65s

You take the first value t1 because it has physical meaning.

The solution for t is real, then, the car stops in 7.78s and does not spare the child.

As an object moves, the distance it travels increases with time. Agree Disagree
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Agree

Explanation:

Distance is described as "how much ground an object is covered" in physics, and because the object is moving, no matter which direction, it is constantly gaining more distance. You can think of the object as a car, and as the car is moving down a highway it is gaining more and more distance as the seconds go by.

You might be confused with the term displacement, "how far out of place an object is" which in this case would be false.

Does that make sense?
