A. Both cars are traveling at
60f(t)/(s)when the driver of
Bsuddenly applies the brakes, causing his car to decelerate at
8f(t)/(s^(2)). It takes the driver of car
A0.75sto react (this is the normal reaction time for drivers). When he applies his brakes, he decelerates at
19f(t)/(s^(2)). (Eloure 1) Figure 1 of 1 Part A Determine the minimum distance
dbetween the cars so as to avoid a collision. Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. View Available Hint(s)
