- To anticipate the dip and the hump in the road, the driver of a car applies his brakes to produce a uniform deceleration. His speed is 100kph at the bottom A of the dip and 50 kph at the top C of the hump. The length of the road from A to Cis 120m. The radius of curvature of the hump at C is 150m.

During the time it takes the car to travel 256 degrees around, what is the magnitude of the car s average acceleration? Hint: Do not calculate instantenous accelleration. Instead calculte the average acceleration over the fraction of a complete lap. Average acceleration equals change in velocity divided by change in time, and that this is a two-dimensional situation so you'll have to calculate the x and y components of the average acceleration first and then figure out the magnitude. Remember also that ax = Δvx/Δt and ay = Δvy/Δt. 0 m/s^2 27.91 m/s^2 13.96 m/s^2 9.84 m/s^2arrow_forwardThe radius of the Car tires is 30.3 cm.
