Electromagnetic waves consist of perpendicular oscillations of electric and magnetic field, which oscillate perpendicularly to the direction of motion of the wave (transverse wave). One property of the electromagnetic waves is that they travel in a vacuum always at the same speed, called speed of light:

$c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s$

Electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different types according to their frequency; from highest to lowest frequency, we have:

Gamma rays

X-rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared

Microwaves

Radio waves

We see that both visible light and gamma rays are electromagnetic waves, so they both travel in a vacuum at the same speed, the speed of light.

As a city planner, you receive complaints from local residents about the safety of nearby roads and streets. One complaint conce

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

a) x₁ = 290.50 feet , x₂ = 169.74 feet , b) v_max= 41 mph

Explanation:

For this exercise we will work in two parts, the first with Newton's second law to find the acceleration of vehicles

X Axis fr = m a

Y Axis N-W = 0

N = W = mg

The force of friction has the expression

fr = μ N

We replace

μ mg = ma

a = μ g

g = 32 feet / s²

Let's calculate the acceleration for each coefficient and friction

μ a (feet / s2)

0.599 19.168

0.536 17,152

0.480 15.360

0.350 11.200

These are the acceleration values, for the maximum distance we use the minimum acceleration (a₁ = 11,200 feet / s²) and for the minimum braking distance we use the maximum acceleration (x₂ = 19,168 feet / s²)

v² = v₀² - 2 a x

When the speed stops it is zero

x₁ = v₀² / 2 a₁

Let's reduce speed

v₀ = 55mph (5280 foot / 1 mile) (1h / 3600s) = 80,667 feet / s²

Let's calculate the maximum braking distance

x₁ = 80.667² / (2 11.2)

x₁ = 290.50 feet

The minimum braking distance

x₂ = 80.667² / (2 19.168)

x₂ = 169.74 feet

b) maximum speed to stop at distance x = 155 feet

0 = v₀² - 2 a x

v₀ = √2 a x

We calculate the speed for the two accelerations

v₀₁ = √ (2 11.2 155)

v₀₁ = 58.92 feet / s

v₀₂ = √ (2 19.168 155)

v₀₂ = 77.08 feet / s

To stop at the distance limit in the worst case the maximum speed must be 58.92 feet / s = 40.85 mph = 41 mph
