The driver of a car slams on the brakes when he sees a tree blocking the road. the car slows uniformly with acceleration of −5.25 m/s2 for 4.15 s, making straight skid marks 62.5 m long, all the way to the tree. with what speed (in m/s) does the car then strike the tree? you may want to calculate the initial velocity of the car first. m/s (b) what if? if the car has the same initial velocity, and if the driver slams on the brakes at the same distance from the tree, then what would the acceleration need to be (in m/s2) so that the car narrowly avoids a collision? m/s2

Explain how the energy of rubber ball is tranforned as it roll down a ramp. give evidence that the energy of the og the ball remains the same at all points on the ramp

Aball is thrown from the top of a building with an initial velocity of 21.9 m/s straight upward, at an initial height of 51.6 m above the ground. the ball just misses the edge of the roof on its way down, as shown in the figure. (a) determine the time needed for the ball to reach its maximum height. (b) determine the maximum height. (c) determine the time needed for the ball to return to the height from which it was thrown, and the velocity of the ball at that instant. (d) determine the time needed for the ball to reach the ground. (e) determine the velocity and position of the ball at t = 5.35 s.

In which item is energy stored in the form of gravitational potential energy? a. a slice of bread b. a compressed spring c. an apple on a tree d. a stretched bow string
