3.6 A car moving along a straight highway with speed of 126 km h–1 is brought to a stop within a distance of 200 m. What is the retardation of the car (assumed uniform), and how long does it take for the car to stop?

3.6 The speed of the car = 126 kmph = (126 * 1000/3600) m/sec = 35 m/s

From the relation V2 = U2 + 2fs, where Final velocity V = 0, U = 35 m/s, s = 200m, we get retardation, f = -U2/2s= 3.06 m2/s

From the relation V = U – ft, we get t = U/f = 35/3.06 = 11.42 s.

 10 = 1 2 a t 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ( 1 ) a n d                        

1 0 + x = 1 2 a ( 2 t ) 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ( 2 )  

X = 1 2 A [ ( 2 t ) 2 t 2 ] = 3 ( 1 2 a t 2 ) = 3 0 m  

 

Average speed = 4 v 2 3 v

= 4 v 3

(d) Initial velocity  = - v j ˆ

Final velocity = v i ˆ

Change in velocity  = v i ˆ - ( - v j ˆ )

= v ( i ˆ + j ˆ ) Momentum gain is along i ˆ + j ˆ

 Force experienced is along i ˆ + j ˆ

  Force experienced is in North-East direction.
