A car is traveling at a constant speed of 54 km/h when its driver sees a child run into the road. The driver applies her brakes until the child returns to the sidewalk and then accelerates to resume her original speed of 54 km/h; the acceleration record of the car is shown in the figure. Assuming x= 0 when t= 0, determine (a) the time t1 at which the velocity is again 54 km/h, (b) the position of the car at that time, (c) the average velocity of the car during the interval 1 s ≤ t≤ t1.
Car A is traveling at a constant speed of vA = 130 kph at a location where the speed limit is 100 kph. The police officer in car P observes this speed via radar. As Car A passes P, the car uniformly decelerates to the speed limit for 5 seconds and maintained the motion. Meanwhile, the police car begins to accelerate at the constant rate of 6 m/s2 until a velocity of 160 kph is achieved, and that speed is maintained.
Determine the deceleration of car A to reach the speed limit,What is the distance traveled by the police to overtake car A, How long did it take for the police officer to overtake car A?
A body moves along a linear path and its rate of change of velocity varies with time and is written as a=2-3t, where t is the time in second. After 5 second, from start of observation its velocity is determined to be 20 m/s. After 10 second from start of observation, the body is at 85 m far from the origin. Determine the following:a. Rate of change of velocity and velocity at the start of motion.b. Distance from the origin at the start of observationc. Time after start of observation in which the velocity becomes zero.
