An initially motionless test car is accelerated to 115 km/h in 8.58 s before striking a simulated deer. The car is in contact with the faux fawn for 0.815 s, after which the car is measured to be traveling at 60.0 km/h. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the care before the collision? What is the magnitude of the average acceleration of the car during the collision?

a)       a = 3.72 m / s², b)    a = -18.75 m / s²

Explanation:

a) Let's use kinematics to find the acceleration before the collision

             v = v₀ + at

as part of rest the v₀ = 0

             a = v / t

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

              v = 115 km / h (1000 m / 1km) (1h / 3600s)

              v = 31.94 m / s

              v₂ = 60 km / h = 16.66 m / s

l

et's calculate

             a = 31.94 / 8.58

             a = 3.72 m / s²

b) For the operational average during the collision let's use the relationship between momentum and momentum

            I = Δp

            F Δt = m v_f - m v₀

            F =

            F = m [16.66 - 31.94] / 0.815

            F = m (-18.75)

Having the force let's use Newton's second law

            F = m a

            -18.75 m = m a

             a = -18.75 m / s²

we can see how the government has failed them.
