The braking efficiency of a passenger car is required to stop at 12.5 m at an initial speed of 40 km/h. What is the acceleration braking by brakes? - Car deceleration
The car is traveling at a speed of 54 km/hour. The driver starts braking with an acceleration (deceleration) of 3 m/s². Specify the time in which to stop. - Friction coefficient
What is the weight of a car when it moves on a horizontal road at a speed of v = 50 km/h at engine power P = 7 kW? The friction coefficient is 0.07 - Car speed
The car covered the track 157.5 km in 2 hours and 15 minutes. How fast was he moving? - Braking distance
The car travels at an average speed of 12 km/h and detects an obstacle 10 m in front of it. At 1 m in front of the obstacle, it already runs 2 km/h. What is the braking distance? What is the required deceleration for a stop: A) 1 m B) 1 s? - Train
A train moves along a track at constant speed v0 for a time t1 = 1.00 h, but then it must stop due to works on the track and waits at the place for a time t2 = 0.50 h. When it gets moving again, its constant speed is only 75% of the original speed v0. The - Overtaking
On the direct road, the passenger car overtakes the slower bus by starting to overtake 20 meters from the bus and then passing it ahead of it again 20 meters away. The car overtakes at a steady speed of 72 km/h, while the bus goes at a steady speed of 54
