- When the legal speed limit for the New York Thruway was increased from 55 mi/h to 65 mi/h, how much time was saved by a motorist who drove the 463 km between his entrance and the New York City exit at the legal speed limit? Number Unitsarrow_forwardAs a city planner, you receive complaints from local residents about the safety of nearby roads and streets. One complaint concerns a stop sign at the corner of Pine Street and 1st Street. Residents complain that the speed limit in the area (89 km/h) is too high to allow vehicles to stop in time. Under normal conditions this is not a problem, but when fog rolls in visibility can reduce to only 47 meters. Because fog is a common occurrence in this region, you decide to investigate. The state highway department states that the effective coefficient of friction between a rolling wheel and asphalt ranges between 0.842 and 0.941, whereas the effective coefficient of friction between a skidding (locked) wheel and asphalt ranges between 0.550 and 0.754. Vehicles of all types travel on the road, from small cars with a mass of 531 kg to large trucks with a mass of 3463 kg. Considering that some drivers will brake properly when slowing down and others will skid to stop, calculate the minimum and…arrow_forwardDuring a hard sneeze, your eyes may shut for about 0.5s.
