Answer
given,
distance = 140 m
time, t = 3.6 s
moving speed = 53 m/s
a) distance = (average velocity) x time
v₀ + 53 = 77.78
v₀ = 24.78 m/s or 25 m/s
b)
a = 7.8 m/s²
using equation of motion
v₀² = v₁² + 2 a s
53² = 0²+ 2 x 7.8 x s
s = 180 m
Answer:
1.4 m/s/s (2.s.f)
Explanation:
The formula for centripetal acceleration is:
, where v is velocity and r is the radius.
In the question we are given the information that the car has a mass of 1300kg, a velocity of 2.5m/s, and a turn radius of 8.5m which are all the values we need. Therefore we can simply substitute in the values to solve the question:
Therefore the centripetal acceleration of the car is 1.4m/s/s. (2.s.f)
Hope this helped!
