Question
The driver of a 1900 kg car (including passengers) traveling at 26.0 m/sm/s slams on the brakes, locking the wheels on the dry pavement. The coefficient of kinetic friction between rubber and dry concrete is typically 0.650.
a)Use the work-energy principle to calculate how far the car will travel before stopping. s=
B)How far would the car travel if it were going twice as fast?
c)What happened to the car's original kinetic energy?

- #1arrow_forwardA. Calculate the work done by the force of gravity when a 5.0kg object is lifted to a height of 30.0m above the ground B. Calculate the velocity with which the object strikes the ground if dropped from that height, using the principle of conservation of energy C. Calculate the kinetic energy and the potential energy of the object at a halfway on the path after it is dropped. To do this part, you need to find the velocity of the object at that position using an equation of motion. What is the total energy of the object at that point? Does this verify the principle of conservation of energy?arrow_forward3.) A public bus (with mass 2500 kg) is traveling along H1 highway at a speed of 3 m/s.
