A professional racecar driver buys a car that can accelerate at 5.9 m/s2. The racer decides to race against another driver in a

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

(a) Time will be t = 3.56 sec

(b) Distance traveled by car when they are side by side is 37.38712 m

(b) Velocity of race car = 21.004 m/sec

velocity of stock car = 12.816 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given acceleration of the car $a_1=5.9m/sec^2$

Acceleration of the stock car $a_2=3.6m/sec^2$

When 1st car overtakes the second car then distance traveled by both the car will be same

(a) So $s_1=s_2$

As both car starts from rest so initial velocity of both car will be 0 m/sec

It is given that stock car leaves 1 sec before

So $\frac{1}{2}\times 5.9\times t^2=\frac{1}{2}\times (t+1)^2\times 3.6$

After solving t = 3.56 sec

(b) From second equation of motion $s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2=0\times 3.56+\frac{1}{2}\times 5.9\times 3.56^2=37.38712m$

So velocity of race car v = 0+5.9×3.56 = 21.004 m/sec

Velocity of stock car v = 0+ 3.6×3.56 = 12.816 m/sec

You would need to use the equation a= (v-u)÷t
You need to substitute in the correct numbers.
a= (10-20)÷1
Your answer is -10m/s^2
