A car increases its speed from 30 mph to 60 mph in 10 seconds. (a) Determine your acceleration, in m / s2 , assuming it is constant. (b) What distance, in meters, does it travel in that time?
A car drives around a circular track of diameter 112 m at a constant speed of 36.0 m/s. During the time it takes the car to travel 231 degrees around, what is the magnitude of the car s average acceleration? a. 10.36 m/s^2 b. 0 m/s^2 c. 23.14 m/s^2 d. 11.57 m/s^2
Constant-acceleration example Ginny is driving at 80 mph on a straight road when she sees a cop car and quickly slows down to 50 mph over 4.0 s (assume uniform acceleration). How much distance did she travel while slowing down? Av, Qargi Vis = Vis + a, At Si= si + vir At + ja, (A1) ve = vi? + 2a, As
A car travels at constant speed around a corner. The cars speed is 35 m/s and the radius of the circle is 0.25 km. The coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is 0.7. What is the frictional force needed for the car to make the turn? What is the maximum force the static friction can produce? Does the car stay on the road? The car is in motion so why is the static friction important?
A car is going along a circular road at a constant speed. The radius of the curve is 290 m, and the car takes 1.7 minutes to complete one round. Calculate its centripetal acceleration in m/s2.
3. A car drives along a bumpy road on which the bumps are equally spaced. At a speed of 20 mph, the frequency of hitting bumps is equal to the natural frequency of the car bouncing Amplitude on its springs. a) Draw a graph of the car's vertical bouncing amplitude as a function of its speed if the car has new shock absorbers (large damping coefficient). b) Draw a graph of the car's vertical bouncing amplitude as a function of...
Exercise 2.6 Can you assume that a car is not accelerating if its speedometer shows a constant, steady reading of 35 mph? Explain. Exercise 2.7 Can the velocity of an object be zero at the same time that that its acceleration is nonzero? Explain and give an example. Exercise 2.8 If you go around a curve at constant speed, is there acceleration associated with this motion? If there is, what is the direction of the acceleration vector? Exercise 2.9 Will...
45 25 m/s 1.5 m/s Car A travels along a straight road at a speed of 25 m/s while accelerating at 15 m/s. At this same instant car C is traveling along the straight road with a speed of 30 m/s while decelerating at 3 m/s?.Determine the velocity = 100 m 3 m/s 30° and acceleration of car A relative to car C. 2 m/s 30 m/s 15 m/s
In which of the following situations is the object's velocity changing? Choose all that apply A person is walking straight west at a constant speed. None of the objects is accelerating. A truck drives at a constant 30-mph as it goes up a hill with a constant incline. A helicopter is ascending straight upward without speeding up or slowing down. A car speeds up while driving north along a level road. A train rounds a curve without changing speed car...
Suppose a car is driving down the road at a speed of 15m/s . The car hits the brakes, inducing an acceleration of -2.5m/s. How long would it take in seconds for the car to fully stop?
