q1: a cyclist brakes to a stop. his thinking distance was 1m and his braking distance was 3m. what was his overall stopping distance?
q2: a car driver notices that there is a red light coming up. he brakes and stops in a total distance of 52 metres. if his thinking distance was 15 metres, what was his braking distance?
q3: a car takes 76 metres to stop once a driver has noticed a hazard. if the thinking distance of the driver was 14m and the speed of the car was 8m/s how long did it take the brakes to slow the car down to a stop?
q4: a lorry travels 28m when stopping from a speed of 4m/s. if its braking distance was 18m, what was the driver’s reaction time?
q5: car 1 brakes to a stop on a dry road. car 2 does the same thing, at the same speed, on a road where it has been raining.

This problem has been solved! see the answera non-uniform fire escape ladder is 6.0m long whenextended to the icy alley below. it is held at the top by africtionless pivot, and there is neglibible frictional force fromthe icy surface at the bottom. the ladder weighs 250n, and it'scenter of gravity is 2.0m along the ladder from the bottom. amother and child of total weight 750n are on the ladder 1.5m fromthe pivot. the ladder makes an angle θ with the horizontal.find the magnitude and direction ofa) the force exerted by the icy alley on the ladderb) the force exerted by the ladder on the pivotc) do your answers in part a and b depend on the angle?

Acave rescue team lifts an injured spelunker directly upward and out of a sinkhole by means of a motor-driven cable. the lift is performed in three stages, each requiring a vertical distance of 10.0 m: (a) the initially stationary spelunker is accelerated to a speed of 4.90 m/s; (b) he is then lifted at the constant speed of 4.90 m/s; (c) finally he is decelerated to zero speed. how much work is done on the 68.0 kg rescue by the force lifting him during each stage?

Large electric fields in cell membranes cause ions to move through the cell wall. the field strength in a typical membrane is 1.0 x 10 7 n/c. what is the magnitude of the force on a calcium ion with charge +e? what is its acceleration? is it possible for a particle with the same charge as as calcium to have a different acceleration if placed at this location? what would change the acceleration: mass of the particle? diameter of the particle?

Aplayground slide is 8.80 ft long and makes an angle of 25.0° with the horizontal. a 63.0-kg child, initially at the top, slides all the way down to the bottom of the slide. (a) choosing the bottom of the slide as the reference configuration, what is the system's potential energy when the child is at the top and at the bottom of the slide? what is the change in potential energy as the child slides from the top to the bottom of the slide? (include the sign of the value in your answer.)
