Serway & Jewett β Circular Motion and Other Applications of Newton's Laws: Problem 18
The mass of a sports car is 1 200 kg. The shape of the body is such that the aerodynamic drag coefficient is 0.250 and the frontal area is 2.20 mΒ². Ignoring all other sources of friction, calculate the initial acceleration the car has if it has been traveling at 100 km/h and is now shifted into neutral and allowed to coast.
π Solution Approach
Given: 200 kg, 2.20 m, 100 km
