It can be observed without changing the identity of the object.
The forces that make a passenger speed up, slow down, or
turn a curve are the same forces that have the same effect
on the driver and anybody else in the car.
-- Speeding up . . .
the back of the seat
friction between the car seat and the seat of your pants
-- Slowing down . . .
the seat belt
friction between the car seat and the seat of your pants
-- Turning away from a straight line . . .
the seat belt
friction between the car seat and the seat of your pants
the door, or whatever or whomever you're leaning against
The solution for this problem is through this formula:Ø = w1 t + 1/2 ã t^2
where:Ø - angular displacement w1 - initial angular velocity t - time ã - angular acceleration
128 = w1 x 4 + ½ x 4.5 x 5^2 128 = 4w1 + 56.254w1 = -128 + 56.25 4w1 = 71.75w1 = 71.75/4
w1 = 17.94 or 18 rad s^-1
w1 = wo + ãt
w1 - final angular velocity
wo - initial angular velocity
18 = 0 + 4.5t t = 4 s
