3. A car is traveling up a 3% grade, with the speed of 85mph, on a road that has good, wet pavement. A deer jumps out onto the road and the driver applies the brakes 290-ft from it. The driver hits the deer at a speed of 20mph. If the driver did not have antilock brakes, and the wheels were locked the entire distance, would a deer-impact speed of 20mph be possible

Explanation:

From the given information;

Let assume that:

the wheel radius = 15 inches

the driveline slippage = 3%;  &

the gear reduction ratio (overall) = 2.5 to 1

So; using the equation:

where;

However;

if the car's anti-clock breaking system did not fail

Thus;

Hence, the distance is possible if the anti-clock breaking system did not fail.

the plateau is likely to turn into a desert do to corrosion.
