- The school zone in front of your school has a posted speed limit of 25 mi/h, which is about 11 m/s. Let’s examine the stopping of a car in several different situations. a). The crossing guard holds up her stop sign, and the driver is paying attention well. The car moves at a constant velocity of 11 m/s for 2.3 seconds while the driver reacts, then slows down at a constant rate of -4.5 m/s2 . What is the stopping distance for the car in this situation? b). A child appears to be running into the street ahead. It takes 2.3 seconds for the driver to react and begin to brake, but this time at a rate of -7.5 m/s2 . What is the stopping distance for the car in this situation? c). The driver is looking at her phone and has a total reaction time of 4.6 seconds as the car is moving at a constant speed of 11 m/s. If the driver slams on her brakes and slows down at a rate of -8.2 m/s2 , what is the stopping distance for the car in this situation?arrow_forwardAn object is at x = 0 at t = 0 and moves along the x axis according to the velocity-time graph in Figure P2.62.

- A runner hopes to complete the 9.9 km run in less than 30.2 min. After running at constant speed for exactly 27.1 min, there are still 1.2 km to go. The runner must then accelerate at 0.21 m/s2 for how many seconds in order to achieve the desired time? Your answer must include two digits after the decimal point and maximum of 5% of error is accepted in your answer.arrow_forwardA high-performance sports car can go from 0 to 100 mph (44.7 m/s) in 7.9s. a) What is the car's average acceleration? b) The same car can come to a complete stop from 30 m/s in about 3.2 s. What is its average acceleration?arrow_forwardYour summer job is with an automobile accident avoidance research team. The system they are investigating sends out infrared radiation from an avoidance device in the car. The infrared signal reflects from an object in front of the car and returns to the avoidance device. The device measures the time delay and is able to process the signal in 0.010s. If a hazard is indicated, the signal causes the car's brakes to be applied in another 0.060 s. The car can slow to a stop with an acceleration of 8.0 m/s^2. Determine the shortest distance to a stationary object on the freeway that can be avoided with this device if the car is traveling at 28 m/s (63 mph). Infrared radiation travels at a speed of 3.0 x 10^8 m/sarrow_forward
- Traumatic brain injury such as concussion results when the head undergoes a very large acceleration. Generally, an acceleration less than 800 m/s2 lasting for any length of time will not cause injury, whereas an acceleration greater than 1000 m/s2 lasting for at least 1 ms will cause injury. Suppose a small child rolls off a bed that is 0.41 m above the floor. If the floor is hardwood, the child's head is brought to rest in approximately 1.9 mm. If the floor is carpeted, this stopping distance is increased to about 1.0 cm. Calculate the magnitude and duration of the deceleration in both cases, to determine the risk of injury. Assume that the child remains horizontal during the fall to the floor. Note that a more complicated fall could result in a head velocity greater or less than the speed you calculate. Hardwood floor magnitude m/s2 duration ms Carpeted floor magnitude m/s2 duration msarrow_forwardCheetahs have the highest top speed of any land animal, but they usually fail in their attempts to catch their prey because their endurance is limited. They can maintain their maximum speed of 30 m/s for only about 15 s before they need to stop.Thomson’s gazelles, their preferred prey, have a lower top speed than cheetahs, but they can maintain this speed for a few minutes. When a cheetah goes after a gazelle, success or failure is a simple matter of kinematics: Is the cheetah’s high speed enough to allow it to reach its prey before the cheetah runs out of steam?The following problem uses realistic data for such a chase.A cheetah has spotted a gazelle. The cheetah leaps into action, reaching its top speed of 30 m/s in a few seconds. At this instant, the gazelle, 160 m from the running cheetah, notices the danger and heads directly away. The gazelle accelerates at 4.5 m/s2 for 6.0 s, then continues running at a constant speed. After reaching its maximum speed, the cheetah can continue…arrow_forwardDr. John Paul Stapp was a U.S. Air Force officer who studied the effects of extreme deceleration on the human body. On December 10, 1954, Stapp rode a rocket sled, accelerating from rest to a top speed of 282 m/s (1015 km/h) in 5.00 s, and was brought jarringly back to rest in only 1.40 s!Calculate the magnitude of his average acceleration during the first part of his motion. Express your answer in multiples of g by taking its ratio to 9.80 m/s2. calculate the magnitude his average deceleration during the second part of his motion.

- During the late 1940's, Colonel John Paul Stapp was a pioneer in studying the effects of acceleration and deceleration on the human body. He made multiple runs strapped to a rocket sled that quickly accelerated him to high speeds along a straight track (see figure). His research led to improvements in restraining harnesses and seatbelts for pilots and automobile occupants. During his final run, he reached a maximum speed of 632 mph. When the sled's braking system brought it to rest, Colonel Stapp experienced a deceleration of magnitude 46.2g, or 46.2 times the acceleration of gravity at the Earth's surface. Although he survived, he did sustain injuries, such as a fractured wrist, broken ribs, and bleeding in his eyes. Calculate how long it took to bring the rocket sled to rest. Assume the deceleration was constant during the braking period.
