A 1,200-kg car is traveling on an icy horizontal road at 30 m/s. The maximum rate at which the car can decelerate without sliding on the ice is 1.2 m/s2; reaching this value will immediately result in sliding uncontrollably with a reduced sliding friction of 700 N.
If the driver panics and slams hard on the brakes, then how far will the car slide before stopping? Answer in km.
Homework Answers
friction = 700 N
deceleration = F/m = 700 / 1200 = 0.5833 m/s^2
using the equation of linear motion we have
v^2 - u^2 = 2aS
0 - 30^2 = 2*-0.5833*S
S = 771.4 m
so the car slides 771.4 m

A car is traveling up a road inclined at an angle Theta above the horizontal. The driver slams on the brakes and skids to a stop. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the pavement for the car sliding to a stop is mu_k. Find an expression for the acceleration of the car as it slides to a stop. Using your result above, find the numerical value of the car's acceleration if Theta = 8.0 degree and mu_k...

A car is traveling to the right with a speed of 2.0m/s on an icy road when the brakes are applied. The car begins sliding with constant acceleration for 3.0m until it comes to a stop. How long does it take the car to slide to a stop? Answer using a coordinate system where rightward is positive. Round the answer to two significant digits.

5, Some of the funniest videos on the web involve motorists sliding uncontrollably on icy roads. Here let's compare the typical stopping distances for a car sliding to a stop from an initial speed of 10.0 m/s on a dry horizontal road, an icy hori- zontal road, and (everyone's favorite) an icy hill. (a) How far does the car take to slide to a stop on a hori- zontal roadi if the coefficient of kinetic friction is = 0.60, which...

A car is traveling at 27.7 m/s along a horizontal road. The coefficients of friction between the road and the tires are μs-0.54 and μk-0.1. Calculate the distance the car travel before stopping if the car is braked hard with no antilock braking system so that the wheels lock? (Take g-9.81 m/s2. 2% of error will be tolerated in your answers.)

2. A 2500 kg car is driving at 65.0 km/h on a horizontal level road. As it approaches a stoplight the light turns red so the brakes are applied as the car hits a patch ofice. With the brakes locked, the car travels 55.0 m before coming to a stop. A) What is the initial kinetic energy of the car? B) How much work is done by friction in stopping the car? c) What is the force of friction stopping...

2) A car is traveling at 18 m/s on a horizontal highway. (a.) If the coefficient of friction between the road and the tires on an icy day is 0.10, what is the minimum distance in which the car will stop? (b.) What is the minimum stopping distance when the surface is dry and the coefficient of friction is 0.60?

A driver is traveling at 30.0 m>s when he sees a moose crossing the road 80.0 m ahead. The moose becomes distracted and stops in the middle of the road. If the driver of the car slams on the brakes, what is the minimum constant acceleration he must undergo to stop short of the moose and avert an accident?

The driver of a 1.19 103 kg car traveling on the interstate at 35.0 m/s (nearly 80.0 mph) slams on his brakes to avoid hitting a second vehicle in front of him, which had come to rest because of congestion ahead. After the brakes are applied, a constant kinetic friction force of magnitude 7.96 103 N acts on the car. Ignore air resistance. (a) At what minimum distance should the brakes be applied to avoid a collision with the other...
