You testify as an "expert witness" in a case involving an accident in which car a slid into the rear of car b, which was stopped at a red light along a road headed down a hill. you find that the slope of the hill is θ = 12.0°, that the cars were separated by distance d = 25.0 m when the driver of car a put the car into a slide (it lacked any automatic anti-brake-lock system), and that the speed of car a at the onset of braking was v0 = 18.0 m/s.

(a) with what speed did car a hit car b if the coefficient of kinetic friction was 0.60 (dry road surface)?
m/s

(b) what was the speed if the coefficient of kinetic friction was 0.10 (road surface covered with wet leaves)?
m/s

Review multiple-concept example 7 in this chapter as an aid in solving this problem. in a fast-pitch softball game the pitcher is impressive to watch, as she delivers a pitch by rapidly whirling her arm around so that the ball in her hand moves in a circle. in one instance, the radius of the circle is 0.626 m. at one point on this circle, the ball has an angular acceleration of 66.1 rad/s2 and an angular speed of 12.6 rad/s. (a) find the magnitude of the total acceleration (centripetal plus tangential) of the ball. (b) determine the angle of the total acceleration relative to the radial direction.
