Before the driver applies the brakes ( with the reaction time ):
d 1 = v0 · t = 20 m/s · 0.53 s = 10.6 m
After that: 
v = v0 - a · t1  
0 = 20 m/s - 7 · t1
7 · t1 = 20
t1 = 2.86 s
d 2 = v 0 · t1 - a · t1² / 2
d 2 = 20 m/s · 2.86 s - 7 m/s² · (2.86 s)²/2 = 57.2 m - 28.6 m = 28.6 m
d = d 1 + d 2 = 10.6 m + 28.6 m = 39.2 m
Answer: the stopping distance of a car is 39.2 m.

a tree is axed 8 feet above its base. When the tree fell to the ground, the tip of the tree lay 10 feet away from its base, as s
yanalaym [24]
Well this seems easy enough well if the tree was cut 8 feet abouve the base and the tip is 10 feet away from the base wouldn't that make the part of the tree that was cut 10 feet away since it's 10 feet from the base which is 0 on a plane grid?

What is the arc length of arc CD in the circle below? Radius is 8ft and central angle is 35 degrees
ki77a [65]
This depends on the question itself. But I will assume and provide an answer.

If arc CD is made from the central angle intercepting the perimeter of the circle( so if the central angle is CBD, then the arc is from the two endpoints of the angle) that would mean that the arc is 35 degrees. If the two endpoints of the arc are NOT the two points from the angle that lie on the circle, then I cannot provide an answer without a picture.

To sum it up, if the arc begins and ends on the two endpoints of the angle, then it is 35 degrees. Unless it goes the long way around, then it would be 325, but that's unlikely to be the case.

Answer:

16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle be x ft

Therefore, length = (x + 2) ft

Area of the rectangle = 15 square ft

x(x + 2) = 15 \\  \\  {x}^{2}  + 2x = 15 \\  \\  {x}^{2}  + 2x - 15 = 0 \\  \\  {x}^{2}  + 5x - 3x - 15 = 0 \\  \\ x(x + 5) - 3(x + 5) = 0 \\  \\ (x + 5)(x - 3) = 0 \\  \\ x + 5 = 0 \: or \:  \: x - 3 = 0 \\  \\ x =  - 5  \:  \: or \:  \: x = 3 \\  \\  \because \: x \: can \: not \: be \:  - ve \\  \\  \therefore \: x = 3 \\   \\  \implies \: x + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5 \\  \\ perimeter \: of \: rectngle  \\ = 2(5 + 3)  \\  = 2 \times 5 \\  = 16 \: ft
