Question
How would you draw the kinematic diagram or free body diagram of this problem?

Transcribed Image Text:I Review
Car B is traveling a distance d ahead of car A, Both
cars are traveling at 60 ft/s when the driver of B
suddenly applies the brakes, causing his car to
decelerate at 12 ft/s?. It takes the driver of car A
Part A
0.75 s to react (this is the normal reaction time for
drivers). When he applies his brakes, he decelerates at
20 ft/s?. (Figure 1)
Determine the minimum distance d between the cars so as to avoid a collision.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Correct
Here we learn how to find the minimum distance between the cars needed to avoid a collision in a situation when the
front one suddenly starts to brake and the back one starts to brake more intensely after the reaction time passes.

N CG -A tip In the above figure the block is just on the verge of tipping: W and N act through point A and thus exert zero torque about point A. The incline angle, Otip, is the incline angle beyond which the block will tip, since increasing the angle beyond Otip will move the CG beyond where there is a point of support below it, as in the previous figure. It is not difficult to show, using some geometry and trigonometry, that Otip is given by Orip = tan' (w / h) (1) Equation (1) agrees with our intuition: If the block is short and wide (h small, w large) the block will be more difficult to tip (Otip is large) and if the block is tall and narrow (h large, w small) the block will be easier to tip (0tip is small). It is now not difficult to see why the automotive industry defines a safety factor describing how easily a vehicle will rollover as (roughly) vehicle width / vehicle height. The larger this safety factor is, the more resistant the vehicle is…arrow_forwardMotor WORM (ears 2 Fact 4 6 7 (Figure 1) D gear 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 are Spor Gear 1) Draw Free body diagram for (figune 1), draw FBD for gear 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.

- Hi, I have been given this pin-jointed frame analysis to solve (see pictures of the structure attached). Can you help me answer all the questions below? Especially the one about the bending moment and shear force. The Figure 2 attached is a simplified structure to undertake a structural analysis on a concept design for a low cost stroller/buggy for children. The buggy consists of a number of metal sections that are pin-jointed together. The buggy is designed to accommodate a child of mass no more than 20 kg, sat on the seat which is supported at four points (Fc) on the frame of the buggy. Assume that the weight of the child is equally distributed across all of the points indicated on Figure 2 as Fc. Assume that there are no additional forces applied to the handle of the buggy, that the buggy is static (stationary) and that the buggy, and the elements of the frame have no mass. At points A and G, there are roll supports. At Points B, F and D there are the pin supports.
