Answer:
A drunk driver's car travel 49.13 ft further than a sober driver's car, before it hits the brakes
Explanation:
Distance covered by the car after application of brakes, until it stops can be found by using 3rd equation of motion:
2as = Vf² - Vi²
s = (Vf² - Vi²)/2a
where,
Vf = Final Velocity of Car = 0 mi/h
Vi = Initial Velocity of Car = 50 mi/h
a = deceleration of car
s = distance covered
Vf, Vi and a for both drivers is same as per the question. Therefore, distance covered by both car after application of brakes will also be same.
So, the difference in distance covered occurs before application of brakes during response time. Since, the car is in uniform speed before applying brakes. Therefore, following equation shall be used:
s = vt
FOR SOBER DRIVER:
v = (50 mi/h)(1 h/ 3600 s)(5280 ft/mi) = 73.33 ft/s
t = 0.33 s
s = s₁
Therefore,
s₁ = (73.33 ft/s)(0.33 s)
s₁ = 24.2 ft
FOR DRUNK DRIVER:
v = (50 mi/h)(1 h/ 3600 s)(5280 ft/mi) = 73.33 ft/s
t = 1 s
s = s₂
Therefore,
s₂ = (73.33 ft/s)(1 s)
s₂ = 73.33 ft
Now, the distance traveled by drunk driver's car further than sober driver's car is given by:
ΔS = s₂ - s₁
ΔS = 73.33 ft - 24.2 ft
<u>ΔS = 49.13 ft</u>

Explanation:
Because the lights will arrive at world after 100 years later.
Answer:
x component 3.88 y- component 14.488
Explanation:
We have given a vector A which has a magnitude of 15 m/sec which is at 75° counter-clock wise ( anti-clock wise) from x -axis which is clearly shown in bellow figure
Now x-component will be 15 cos75°=3.8822 ( as it makes an angle of 75° with x-axis )
y- component will be 15 sin 75°=14.488
For verification the resultant of x and y component should be equal to 15
So 
Answer:
a = 0.8 m/s^2
Explanation:
Force equation: F = ma
F = ma -> a = F/m = 2.8*10^3 N / 3.5*10^3 kg = 0.8 m/s^2
