A 2500 kg car traveling to the north is slowed down uniformly from an initial velocity of 27.0 m/s by a 7850 N braking force acting opposite the car’s motion.
What is the car's velocity after 2.52s?
How far does the car move during the 2.52 s?
How long does it take the car to come to a complete stop?

19.1 m/s

58.1 m

8.60 s

Explanation:

Take north to be positive and south to be negative.

Use Newton's second law to find the acceleration.

∑F = ma

-7850 N = (2500 kg) a

a = -3.14 m/s²

Given:

v₀ = 27.0 m/s

a = -3.14 m/s²

Find: v given t = 2.52 s

v = at + v₀

v = (-3.14 m/s²) (2.52 s) + 27.0 m/s

v = 19.1 m/s

Find: Δx given t = 2.52 s

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (27.0 m/s) (2.52 s) + ½ (-3.14 m/s²) (2.52 s)²

Δx = 58.1 m

Find: t given v = 0 m/s

v = at + v₀

0 m/s = (-3.14 m/s²) t + 27.0 m/s

t = 8.60 s

the answer is a. the yacht traveled from the dock north to the 200-meter marker in the bay in less than 5 minutes, giving the passengers several more hours to fish.

im doing peak rn so sry if its wrong

the assestment will probley apele with cause and effect
