Halliday, Resnick & Walker β Motion Along a Straight Line: Problem 75
To stop a car, first you require a certain reaction time to begin braking; then the car slows at a constant rate. Suppose that the total distance moved by your car during these two phases is 56.7 m when its initial speed is 80.5 km/h, and 24.4 m when its initial speed is 48.3 km/h. What are (a) your reaction time and (b) the magnitude of the acceleration?
π Solution Approach
Given: 56.7 m, 80.5 km, 24.4 m, 48.3 km
Find: (a) your reaction time and; (b) the magnitude of the acceleration?
