Driving down the road at a speed of 26.6 m/s, you suddenly notice a fallen tree blocking the road a distance of 57.9 m ahead of you. You step on the brake pedal and decelerate at a constant rate. What must the magnitude of your acceleration be so that you will come to a stop 7.6 m in front of the tree?

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...

Two cars are driving at the same constant speed on a straight road, with car 1 in front of car 2. Car 1 suddenly starts to brake with constant acceleration and stops in 10 m. At the instant car 1 comes to a stop, car 2 begins to brake with the same acceleration. It comes to a halt just as it reaches the back of car 1. What was the separation between the cars before they starting braking?

You are walking down a straight path in a park and notice there is another person walking some distance ahead of you. The distance between the two of you remains the same, so you deduce that you are walking at the same speed of 1.17 m/s. Suddenly, you notice a wallet on the ground. You pick it up and realize it belongs to the person in front of you. To catch up, you start running at a speed of 2.75...

You're driving along at 25 m/s with your aunt's valuable antiques in the back of your pickup truck when suddenly you see a giant hole in the road 55 m ahead of you. Fortunately, your foot is right beside the brake and your reaction time is zero! Part A Can you stop the truck before it falls into the hole?

I'm driving down the highway in my car, at a speed of 25 m/s. Some jerk cuts me off and rapidly slows down, so I have to slam on my brakes to avoid hitting him. (a) If I brake for 5.0 s down to a speed of 15 m/s, what was my acceleration during that period? You may assume that my acceleration was constant. (b) What distance did I travel during the period in which I was braking?
