We use kinematic equations,

During reaction time,

S = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2                        (A)

During the deceleration,

v^2= u^2 + 2as.                                   (B)

Here, u is initial velocity, v is final velocity , a is acceleration and t is time.

There is no deceleration during his 0.8 sec reaction time so a=0, from equation (A),

S = 20 \ m/s (0.8 \ s) + 0 \times t= 16 \ m

During the deceleration (a = -7.0 m/s^2) ,  final velocity will be zero i.e v = 0, therefore from equation (B),

0 = (20 m/s)^2 +2 (-7.0 m/s^2) \ s \\\\ s =  \frac{-400}{-14} = 28. 57 m

Thus, the distance traveled by car after he sees need to put brakes is

S + s = 16 \ m + 28.57 \ m =44 .57 \ m

Block b rests upon a smooth surface. if the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between a and b are μs = 0.4 and μk = 0.
aliina [53]

Given

Weight of the block A, Wa = 20 lb, weight of block B Wb = 50 lb. Applied force to block A, P = 6lb, coefficient of static friction µs = 0.4, coefficient of kinetic friction µk = 0.3. If a force P is applied to the body, no relative motion will take place until the applied force is equal to the force of friction Ff, which is acting opposite to the direction of motion. Magnitude of static force of friction between block A and block B, Fs = µsN, where N is reaction force acting on block A. Now, resolve the forces Fx = max. P = (mA + mB)a,

 

6 = (20 / 32.2 + 50 / 32.2)a

 

2.173a = 6

 

A = 2.76 ft/s^2

 

To check slipping occurs between block A and block B, consider block A:

P – Ff = mAaA

6 – Ff = 1.71

Ff = 4.29 lb

 

And also,

N = wA. We know static friction,

Fs = µsN

Fs = 0.4 x 20

Fs = 8lb

Frictional force is less than static friction. Ff < Fs

<span>Therefors, acceleration of block A, aA = 2.76 ft/s^2, acceleration of block B aB = 2.76 ft/s^2</span>
