Question

3) During his trip around the track, a cat runs out in front of Outa Lux's car. Upon slamming on his brakes, Outa decreases his speed from 200 mph to 110 mph within 3.3 seconds. What was his average acceleration in: a) m/sec² during this time? b) ft/sec² during this time? ** (Show all of your work in solving the problem including the formula and appropriate units, 10 Points).

Step 1

To convert from mph to m/s, we need to multiply the speed by a conversion factor of 0.44704. Initial speed = 200 mph * 0.44704 m/s = 89.408 m/s Final speed = 110 mph * 0.44704 m/s = 49.136 m/s Show more…
