Answer:

F = 2250 [N]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must first use the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f}^{2} =v_{o}^{2}-2*a*x

where:

Vf = final velocity = 0 (come to rest)

Vo =  initial velocity = 30 [m/s]

a = acceleration or desaceleration [m/s²]

x = distance = 100 [m]

(0)=30^{2} -2*a*100\\900 =  200*a\\a = 4.5 [m/s^{2}]

Now we must use the following equation of kinetics, which is based on Newton's second law that explains that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

where:

F = force [N]

m = mass = 500 [kg]

a = acceleration = 4.5 [m/s²]

F = 500*4.5\\F = 2250 [N]

if a car that is 100 feet in front of you on route 70 west slams on the brakes while you are traveling 65 miles per hour (95 fee
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

t = 1.05 s

Explanation:

Given,

The distance between your vehicle and car, 100 ft

The constant speed of your vehicle, u = 95 ft/s

Since, the velocity is constant, a =0

If the car stopped suddenly, time left for you to hit the brake, t = ?

Using the second equation of motion,

                           S = ut + ½ at²

Substituting the given values in the equation

                           100 = 95 x t

                             t = 100/95

                               = 1.05 s

Hence, the time left for you to hit the brakes and stop before rear ending them, t = 1.05 s
