- The brakes of a car are applied, causing it to slow down at a rate of 10 ft/s2. Knowing that the car stops 300 ft, determine (a) how fast the car was traveling immediately before brakes were applied, (b) the time required for the car to stop.On a certain stretch of track, trains run at 60 kph. How far back of a stopped train should be a warning torpedo be placed to signal an oncoming train? Assume that the brakes are applied at once and retard the train at the uniform rate of 2 ft/sec.A motorcycle patrolman starts from rest at A 2 sec. after a car speeding at the constant rate of 120 kph passes point A. If the patrolman accelerates at the rate of 6 m/s2 until he reaches his maximum permissible speed of 150 kph, which he maintains. a. Find the time for the patrolman to reach a maximum permissible speed of 150 kph. b. How long did it take the patrolman to overtake the car from the time he starts from A.? c. Calculate the distance S from point A to the point at which he overtakes the car.
- A truck travels along a straight, level road at the speed of 76ft/sec. when the driver is forced to apply the breaks to avoid an accident. If the truck undergoes a constant deceleration of 6ft/sec2, how far does the truck travel before coming to a complete stop?A driver driving at 69 kph at a straight flat portion of the highway suddenly encounters an obstruction. He applies his brakes. If the coefficient of friction of the roadway to the tires is equal to 0.5, calculate the maximum safe distance (rounded to the nearest meters) the driver can apply his brakes to avoid collision. g = 9.81 m/s^2A student trying to test the braking ability of her car determined that she needed 18.5 ft more to stop her car when driving downhill on a road segment of 5% grade than when driving downhill at the same speed along another segment of 3%. Determine the speed at which the student conducted her test in kph. Use f= 0.25 Hint = 5280 ft.

- A driver is driving at 75 kph when a dog suddenly appeared and stopped at the middle of the road. Determine the distance the vehicle would move before the driver could activate the brakes. Assume PRT is 2.50 secs. If the friction factor is 0.30 and brake efficiency is 45%, determine the braking distance. If the vehicle is 250 m away when the driver sees the dog, will the dog be hit by the vehicle?A car is traveling at 76 mi/hr down a 3% grade on poor, wet pavement. The car's braking efficiency is 90%. The brakes were applied 320 ft before impacting an object. The car had an antilock braking system, but the system failed 200ft after the brakes had been applied (wheels locked). What speed was the car traveling at just before it impacted the object? (Assume theoretical stopping distance, ignore air resistance, and let Frl=0.015)The car is traveling at 48 km/h when the traffic light 90 m ahead turns yellow. The driver takes one second to react before he applies the brakes. (a) After he applies the brakes, what constant rate of deceleration will cause the car to come to a stop just as it reached the light? (b) How long does it take the car to travel the 90 m?
