The problem I'm working on already provides the acceleartion. I need to find the average velocity. How do I do that?
How are instantaneous velocity and instantaneous speed related to one another? How do they differ?
The automobile is originally at rest, i.e., s (t = 0 s) = 0 m. If it then starts toincrease its speed at a (t) = (0.05t2 ) ft/s 2 , where t is in seconds, then determine the magnitudes ofits velocity and acceleration at s = 550 ft. Note that a (t) becomes a t (t) along the circular path.
A car can be braked to a stop from the autobahn-likespeed of 200 km/h in 170 m. Assuming the acceleration is constant,find its magnitude in (a) SI units and (b) in terms of g. (c) How muchtime Tb is required for the braking? Your reaction time Tr is the timeyou require to perceive an emergency, move your foot to the brake,and begin the braking. If Tr = 400 ms, then (d) what is Tb in terms ofTr, and (e) is most of the full time required to stop spent in reactingor braking? Dark sunglasses delay the visual signals sent from theeyes to the visual cortex in the brain, increasing Tr. (f) In the extremecase in which Tr is increased by 100 ms, how much farther doesthe car travel during your reaction time?
On July 13, 1977, while on atest drive at Britain’s Silverstone racetrack, the throttle on DavidPurley’s car stuck wide open. The resulting crash subjected Purleyto the greatest “g-force” ever survived by a human—he deceleratedfrom 173 km>h to zero in a distance of only about 0.66 m. Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration experienced by Purley(assuming it to be constant), and express your answer in units ofthe acceleration of gravity, g = 9.81 m>s2.
