Answer:

It is called a collision.

Explanation:

When two objects bump into each other, this is called a collision. In physics, a collision doesn't have to involve an accident (like two cars crashing into each other), but can be any event where two or more moving objects exert forces on each other for a short period of time.

You are traveling on an interstate highway at the posted speed limit of 70 mph when you see that the traffic in front of you has

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:8.75 s,

136.89 m

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity $=70 mph\approx 31.29 m/s$

velocity after 5 s is $30 mph\approx 13.41 m/s$

Therefore acceleration during these 5 s

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

$a=\frac{13.41-31.29}{5}=-3.576 m/s^2$

therefore time required to stop

v=u+at

here v=final velocity =0 m/s

initial velocity =31.29 m/s

$0=31.29-3.576\times t$

$t=\frac{31.29}{3.576}=8.75 s$

(b)total distance traveled before stoppage

$v^2-u^2=2as$

$0^2-31.29^2=2\times (-3.576)\cdot s$

s=136.89 m

Answer:

10 kJ

Explanation:

W = Fd

W = (μN)(vt)

W = μ(mg)vt

W = 0.7(42.9)(9.81)(9)(3.8)

W = 10,075.12506 J

W ≈ 10 kJ
