Task VI:

As a technical engineer in the army, you are part of a team in charge of testing and commissioning a new tank recently purchased by the artillery. 

 

Field testing has revealed the following information:

 

  • The tank moves from rest to a speed of 70 ??/ℎ? in 10
  • Using the breaking system, the tank is brought to a complete stop from a speed of 70 ??/ℎ? in 5

You are required to address all the questions below providing all calculations, graphs, and explanations as appropriate to back your answers.

 

 

 

 

First: Motion of the tank:

  1. Find the average driving acceleration of the tank.
  2. Calculate the average breaking acceleration of the tank.
  3. For parts (a) and b above parts report your answers in US Customary Units (mile/hr) so that the information could be shared with experts from the US.
1) The tank moves from rest to a speed of 70 km/hr in 10 seconds.
2) Using the breaking system, the tank is brought to a complete stop from a speed of 70 km/hr in 5 seconds.
Transcribed Image Text:1) The tank moves from rest to a speed of 70 km/hr in 10 seconds. 2) Using the breaking system, the tank is brought to a complete stop from a speed of 70 km/hr in 5 seconds.
