A car is traveling at 50 mi/h when the brakes are fully applied, producing a constant deceleration of 24 ft/s2. What is the dist

ance (in ft) traveled before the car comes to a stop? (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

The car has initial speed 50 mi/h ≈ 73 ft/s, so it covers a distance <em>x</em> such that

0² - (73 ft/s)² = 2 (-24 ft/s²) <em>x</em>

==> <em>x</em> ≈ 111.0 ft

An object of unknown mass is initially at rest and dropped from a height h. It reaches the ground with a velocity v1 . The same

Answer:

$v_2=\sqrt{2}v_1$

Explanation:

The velocity v₁ can be calculated with the kinematic formula:

$v_1^{2} =v_0^{2} +2gh$

Since the object is initially at rest, v₁ becomes:

$v_1=\sqrt{2gh}$

Where g is the acceleration due to gravity. Now, the velocity v₂ can be calculated with the same formula, but now the initial velocity is v₁:

$v_2^{2}=v_1^{2} +2gh$

Substituting v₁ in this expression and solving for v₂, we get:

$v_2^{2}=(\sqrt{2gh} )^{2} +2gh=4gh\\\\\implies v_2=\sqrt{4gh}=2\sqrt{gh}$

Now, dividing v₂ over v₁, we get the expression:

$\frac{v_2}{v_1}=\frac{2\sqrt{gh} }{\sqrt{2gh}}=\sqrt{2}\\ \\\implies v_2=\sqrt{2}v_1$

It means that v₂ is √2 times v₁.
