Answer:
Distance, d = 192 meters
Explanation:
We have,
Initial velocity of an object is 10 m/s
Acceleration of the object is 3.5 m/s²
Time, t = 8 s
We need to find the distance travelled by the object during that time. Second equation of motion gives the distance travelled by the object. It is given by :
So, the distance travelled by the object is 192 meters.
Answer:
27.1 m/s
Explanation:
Given that at a race car driving event, a staff member notices that the skid marks left by the race car are 9.06 m long. The very experienced staff member knows that the deceleration of a car when skidding is -40.52 m/s2.
Using third equation of motion,
V^2 = U^2 + 2aS
Since the car is decelerating, the final velocity V = 0
Substitute all the parameter into the equation above,
0 = U^2 - 2 * 40.52 * 9.06
U^2 = 734.22
U =
U = 27.096
U = 27.1 m/s approximately
Therefore, the staff member can estimate for the original speed of the race car to be 27.1 m/s if it came to a stop during the skid
