Two cars are traveling in the same lane in the same direction. They are 120 ft apart and are both traveling at 60 mph. The roadway is level. The leading car hits a disabled milk truck and comes to an instatenous stop. The perception-reaction time of the driver in the trailing car is ½ second. The driver of the trailing car locks the brakes and skids into the lead car. The coefficient of friction between the roadway and skidding tires is 0.6. (a) How far does the trailing car skid after the brakes lock? (b) What is the speed of the trailing car at the moment it collides with the stationary lead car? (c) If the trailing car is able to skid past (not into) the stationary lead car, what length of skid marks would it leave?
