You are driving at 30m/s and hit your breaks, skidding to a stop. The static coefficient of friction between your tires and the road is μs = 0.7. The mass of your car is 1500 kg.
a) What is your initial kinetic energy right before you hit the breaks?
b) What is the magnitude of the static friction force acting on the car?
c) Does the friction do positive or negative work on the car? Explain your reasoning.
d) Use the work-energy theorem to calculate how far you will skid before stopping.

A Review Constants Periodic Table Part A You are driving your 1400 kg car at 19 m/s down a hill with a 5.0° slope when a deer suddenly jumps out onto the roadway. You slam on your brakes, skidding to a stop. How far do you skid before stopping if the kinetic friction force between your tires and the road is 1.1x104 N ? Solve this problem using conservation of energy. Express your answer with the appropriate units. μΑ 2)...

3. You are driving on the freeway at 80 mph, trailing the car in front of you by two seconds. Suddenly, the car in front of you - also traveling at 80 mph brakes to stop; its tires are new, with a friction coefficient of 0.8. Your car, on the other hand, has poor tires with a coefficient of 0.5. Due to distracting music and passengers, you do not...

The driver of a car of mass M which is moving along a straight road with initial speed v0 sees a deer in her headlights, and reacts quickly, lifting her foot of the gas and applying the brake pedal with maximum force. The anti-lock brakes cause the largest possible static friction force to be applied on the tires by the road, which continue to roll so the car does not skid. The coefficient of static friction between the tires and...

2.) A person is pushing a 750 kg car a distance of 30m with a constant pushing force of 550 N that is parallel to the ground. If the car is accelerated from rest to a speed of 1.5 m/s, find the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road. Use the Work kinetic energy theorem.

You are driving your car along a flat, curved road; the curve in the road is a segment of a circle with radius 50 meters. (We call this a "radius of curvature"). How fast can the car drive around the curve if the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is 1.0 (tires on dry pavement)? What if the coefficient of friction is 0.2 (tires on ice)?

You are called as an expert witness to analyze the following auto accident: Car B, of mass 1900 kg, was stopped at a red light when it was hit from behind by car A, of mass 1500 kg. The cars locked bumpers during the collision and slid to a slop with brakes locked on all wheels. Measurements of the skid marks left by the tires showed them...

020 (part 1 of 3) 10.0 points You are driving at the speed of 34.8 m/s (77.862 mph) when suddenly the car in front of you (previously traveling at the same speed) brakes and begins to slow down with the largest deceleration possible without skid- ding. Considering an average human reaction, you press your brakes 0.576 s later. You also brake and decelerate as rapidly as possible without skidding. Assume that the coefficient of static friction is 0.722 between both...
