A drag racer crosses the finish line of a 400 m track with a final speed of 104 m/s. (a) Assuming constant acceleration during the race, calculate the racer's time and the minimum coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road. (b) If, because of bad tires or wet pavement, the acceleration were 30 % smaller, calculate how long it takes to finish the race. HUAWEI P30 lite TRIPLE CAMERA Slide 61
7. Sally is driving at a constant speed of 25 m/s on a straight horizontal road. She sees an obstacle on the road ahead and applies the brakes! The wheels lock causing the car to slide forward. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road is 0.40, how long does it take the car to come to a complete stop?
A truck tows a boat along a straight, flat highway at 55 mph. In the absence of friction, what would happen to the boat if the tow hitch broke suddenly? a)The boat would continue traveling at some angle to the original path. b)The boat would suddenly stop. c)The boat would continue moving forward at less than 55 mph. d)The boat would continue traveling straight and eventually slow to a stop. e)The boat would continue moving forward at 55 mph.
