Answer:

96 m

Explanation:

Given,

Initial velocity ( u ) = 4 m/s

Final velocity ( v ) = 20 m/s

Time ( t ) = 8 s

Let Acceleration be " a ".

Formula : -

a = ( v - u ) / t

a = ( 20 - 4 ) / 8

= 16 / 8

a = 2 m/s²

Let displacement be " s ".

Formula : -

s = ut + at² / 2

s = ( 4 ) ( 8 ) + ( 2 ) ( 8² ) / 2

= 32 + ( 2 ) ( 64 ) / 2

= 32 + ( 2 ) ( 32 )

= 32 + 64

s = 96 m

Therefore, it travels 96 m in time 8 s.

You have been called in by your neighborhood safety council to advise them about installing a barrier on a dangerous curve that
Alborosie

Answer: The softer barrier is the better option

Explanation:

1) When is a car is moving at a certain speed, it has a certain amount of momentum (p=mv). A collision against a barrier would cause its momentum to decrease to 0. A change in momentum is Impulse

2) The formula for Impulse: J = f * Δt

J is Impulse

f is the force applied during the time Δt

A tough barrier would produce a smaller Δt, which means more force is applied on the car. (J is always constant)

A softer barrier would apply less force on the car, which means Δt is large.

Answer: The softer barrier is the better option
