Answer: a=-2.4525 m/s^2
d=s=190.3 m
Explanation:The only force that is stopping the car and causing deceleration is the frictional force Fr
Fr = 25% of weight
W=mg
W=1750*9.81
W=17167.5
Hence
Frictional force is negative as it acts in opposite direction
According to newton second law of motion
F=ma
hence
given
u= 110 km/h
u=110*1000/3600
u=30.55 m/s
to get t we know that final velocity v=0
Answer :
(a) The acceleration of the car is,
(b) The distance covered by the car is, 150 m
Explanation :
By the 1st equation of motion,
...........(1)
where,
v = final velocity = 5 m/s
u = initial velocity = 25 m/s
t = time = 10 s
a = acceleration of the car = ?
Now put all the given values in the above equation 1, we get:
The acceleration of the car is,
By the 2nd equation of motion,
...........(2)
where,
s = distance covered by the car = ?
u = initial velocity = 25 m/s
t = time = 10 s
a = acceleration of the car =
Now put all the given values in the above equation 2, we get:
By solving the term, we get:
The distance covered by the car is, 150 m
