Answer:

a. 6.67 meters

b. 16 seconds

Explanation:

a. v=(24×1000)/3600=6.67 m/s

v=u-at

a=(v-u)/t=(6.67-0)/2=3.335 m/s^2

s=ut+(1/2) at^2 = 0×2+.5×3.335×(2)²=6.67 meters

b. After 2seconds, he ran at a constant velocity. From a, in 2 seconds, he crossed 6.67 meters.

So, distance left =(100-6.67)=93.33 meters

to cross 93.33 meters,he needed,

s=vt

93.33=6.67t

t=13.99≡14 seconds

So, Total (93.33+6.67)=100 meters were covered in (14+2)=16 seconds

Hope, this helps you.

A car is traveling at 75 m/s. 50 seconds later it is traveling at 25 m/s. What is the car’s acceleration?
scoray [572]

Answer:

a = -1 m/s^2

Explanation:

Vi = 75 m/s

Vf = 25 m/s

t = 50 s

Plug those values into the following equation:

Vf = Vi + at

25 = 75 + 50a

---> a = -1 m/s^2

Stopping distance of vehicles When brakes are applied to a moving vehicle, the distance it travels before stopping is called sto
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Stopping distance = 40m

Explanation:

Given the following :

Initial speed of vehicle before applying brakes = 72km/hr

Converting km/hr to m/s:

72km/hr = [(72 * 1000)m] / (60 * 60)

72km/hr = 72,000m / 3600s

72km/hr = 20m/s

Deceleration after applying brakes (-a) (negative acceleration) = - 5m/s^2

From the 3rd equation of motion:

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

Where v = final Velocity ; u= Initial Velocity ; a = acceleration and s = distance

Final velocity when the car stops will be 0

Therefore ;

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

0 = 20^2 + 2(-5)(s)

0 = 400 - 10s

10s = 400

s = 400/10

s = 40m

Therefore, the stopping distance of the car = 40 meters
