A motorist traveling at 17 m/s encounters a deer in the road 39 m ahead. If the maximum acceleration the vehicle’s brakes are capable of is −7 m/s 2 , what is the maximum reaction time of the motorist that will allow her or him to avoid hitting the deer? Answer in units of s. 019 (part 2 of 2) 10.0 points If his or her reaction time is 1.21983 s, how fast will (s) he be traveling when (s)he reaches the deer? Answer in units of m/s.

1. t_reaction = 1.08 s

2. v₀₁ = 16.365 m/s

Explanation:

1. This is a kinematics exercise, let's analyze the situation a bit, we can calculate the braking distance and the rest of the distance we can use to calculate the reaction time.

Braking distance

v² = v₀² + 2 a x

when he finishes braking the speed is v = 0

0 = v₀² + 2 a x

x = -v₀² / 2a

x = - 17²/2 (-7)

x = 20.64 m

the distance for the reaction is

d = x_reaction + x

x_reaction = d - x

x_reaction = 39 - 20.64

x_reaction = 18.36 m

as long as it has not reacted the vehicle speed is constant

v = x_reaction / t_reaction

t_reaction = x_reaction / v

t_reaction = 18.36 / 17

t_reaction = 1.08 s

2. Let's find the distance traveled in the reaction time of t1 = 1.21983 s

as the speed is constant

v = x / t

x₁ = v t₁

the distance traveled during braking is

v² = v₀² + 2a x₂

0 = v₀² + 2 a x₂

x₂ = -v₀² / 2a

v = v₀

the total distance is

x_total = x₁ + x₂

x_total = v₀ t₁ + v₀² / 2a

39 = v₀ 1.21983 + v₀²/14

v₀² + 17.08 vo - 546 =0

we solve the second degree equation

v₀ = [ -17.08 ±√(17.08² + 4 546) ]/2

v₀ = [-17.08 ± 49.81 ]/2

v₀₁ = 16.365 m/s

v₀₂ = - 33.445 m/s

as the acceleration is negative the correct result is v₀₁ = 16.365 m/s

Iwould choose the same momentum because if they throw a baseball very light and not hard at all then doing it with a bowling ball won’t hurt that worse

Answer from: Quest

hello, i am papaguy.

i have found an answer to your question but use it as information.

information: because weak acids/bases have low concentration of hydrogen ions, the addition of water has a large impact on the ph. 2. a difference in 1 unit is a 10x difference in concentration for example; a liquid with ph of 3 is 10x more acidic than a liquid with a ph of 4. therefore, a liquid with a ph of 3 is stronger.

best of luck!

Search coils and credit cards. one practical way to measure magnetic field strength uses a small, closely wound coil called a search coil. the coil is initially held with its plane perpendicular to a magnetic field. the coil is then either quickly rotated a quarter-turn about a diameter or quickly pulled out of the field. (a) derive the equation relating the total charge q that flows through a search coil to the magnetic-field magnitude b. the search coil has n turns, each with area a, and the flux through the coil is decreased from its initial maximum value to zero in a time ∆t. the resistance of the coil is r, and the total charge is q = i∆t, where i is the average current induced by the change in flux. (b) in a credit card reader, the magnetic strip on the back of a credit card is rapidly “swiped” past a coil within the reader. explain, using the same ideas that underlie the operation of a search coil, how the reader can decode the information stored in the pattern of magnetization on the strip. (c) is it necessary that the credit card be “swiped” through the reader at exactly the right speed? why or why not?
