Halliday, Resnick & Walker β€” Motion Along a Straight Line: Problem 106

Crash acceleration. A car crashes head on into a wall and stops, with the front collapsing by 0.500 m. The driver is firmly held to the seat by a seat belt and thus moves forward by 0.500 m during the crash. Assume that the acceleration is constant during the crash. What is the magnitude of the driver’s acceleration in g units if the initial speed of the car is (a) 35 mi/h and (b) 70 mi/h?

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Given: . A, 0.500 m

Find: (a) 35 mi/h and; (b) 70 mi/h?
