You're driving down the highway late one night at 16.0 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 39.0 m in front of you. your reaction

time before stepping on the breaks is 0.50 s, and the maximum deceleration of your car is 12.0 m/s2 . how much distance is in between you and the deer when you come to a stop? what is the maximum speed you could have and still not hit the dear?

The breaking distance consists of two parts. The first part is the first 0.5 seconds were no breaking occurs. Given values: t time, v₀ initial velocity:
x₁ = v₀*t
The second part occurs after t = 0,5s with the given acceleration: a = - 12 m/s²
were the final velocity is zero, v = 0 and the initial velocity v₀= 16m/s:
v = a*t + v₀ = 0 => v₀ = -a*t => t = v₀/-a

x₂ = 0.5*a*t² = 0.5*v°²/a

The total breaking distance is the sum of the two parts:
x = x₁ + x₂ = v₀* t + 0.5 * v₀² / a = 16 * 0.5 + 0.5 * 16² / 12 = 8 + 10,7 = 18,7

You can use this result to calculate the remaining distance. You can use the last equation to calculate the maximum speed you could have to avoid a collision.
Use x = 39m and solve for v₀.

A man walking on a tightrope carries a long a pole which has heavy items attached to the two ends. If he were to walk the tight-
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

 I_weight = M L²

this value is much larger and with it it is easier to restore balance.I

Explanation:

When man walks a tightrope, he carries a linear velocity, this velocity is related to the angular velocity by

            v = w r

For man to maintain equilibrium needs the total moment to be zero

             ∑τ = I α

              S  τ = 0

The forces on the home are the weight of the masses, the weight of the man and the support on the rope, the latter two are zero taque the distance to the center of rotation is zero.

Therefore the moment of the masses and the open is the one that must be zero.

If the man carries only the bar, we could approximate it by two open one on each side of the axis of rotation formed by the free of the rope

              I = ⅓ m L² / 4

As the length of half the length of the bar and the mass of the bar is small, this moment is small, therefore at the moment if there is some imbalance it is difficult to recover.

If, in addition to the opening, each of them carries a specific weight, the moment of inertia of this weight is

             I_weight = M L²

this value is much larger and with it it is easier to restore balance.

Jessica is running a 10K. She alternates between running and walking each kilometer. She runs at a rate of 1 kilometer every 5 m
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

c.100 minutes

Explanation:

Total distance = 10 km

Runs for 1 km every 5 minutes

walks 1 km every 15 min

She alternates between walking and running  so,  Jessica will walk 5 km and run 5 Km

Time taken by Jessica for walking : 5 km

Time taken to walk 1 km=5 minutes

Time taken to walk 5 km

=> 5 X 5

=>25 minutes

Time taken by Jessica for Running : 5km

Time taken to run 1 km = 15 minutes

 

=> 5 X 15

=>75 minutes

Total time taken   = Time taken by Jessica for walking + Time taken by Jessica for Running

=>25 minutes +75 minutes

=> 100 minutes
