Question
3. Your engineering firm has been asked to determine the deceleration of a car during hard braking. To do so,
you decide to measure the lengths of the skid marks when stopping from various initial speeds. Your data are
as follows:
Skid length (m)
Speed (m/s)
10
7
15
14
20
27
25
37
30
58
a. Do the data support an assertion that the deceleration is constant, independent of speed? Explain?
b. Determine an experimental value for the car's deceleration- that is, the absolute value of the acceleration
Your analysis method should involve fitting a straight line to an appropriate graph.
