Car B is towing car A at a constant speed of 10 m/s on an uphill grade when the brakes of car A are fully applied causing all four wheels to skid. The driver of car B does not change the throttle set- ting or change gears. The masses of the cars A and B are 1400 kg and 1200 kg, respectively, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.8. Neglecting air resistance and rolling resistance, determine (a) the dis- tance traveled by the cars before they come to a stop, (b) the tension in the cable. 5° 10 m/s A 5 m 10 m/s B

A car of mass 700 kg travels round a horizontal curve of 60 m radius. The centre of gravity of the car is 1.25 m above the ground and the distance between the wheels is 1.7 m. If the limiting coefficient of friction between the tyres and the road is 0.6 determine, with reason, whether the vehicle will skid or overturn when rounding the bend at speed. Hence state the maximum permissible speed to navigate the curve safely.
Problem 1. A 35-lb block slides down a 20° inclined plane with an initial velocity of 3 ft/s. Determine the velocity of the block in 4 seconds if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is 0.29.
A car A is stuck on the railroad tracks as a train B approaches with a speed of 120 km/hr. As soon as the problem is detected, the train's emergency brakes are activated, locking the wheels and causing the train's wheels to slide relative to the tracks. If the co-efficient of kinetic friction between the wheels and the track is 0.2, use work energy principle to determine the minimum distance d at which the brakes must be applied to avoid a collision under the following circumstances. Mass of the train is 195,000 kg. A B d

Neglecting the masses of the pulleys and the effect of friction in the pulleys and assuming that the coefficients of friction between block A and the horizontal surface are u = 0.25 and u = 0.20, determine (a) the acceleration of each block, (b) the tension in the cable. 30 kg
A truck is traveling down a road with a 4-percent grade at a speed of 60 mi/h when its brakes are applied to slow it down to 20 mi/h. An antiskid braking system limits the braking force to a value at which the wheels of the truck are just about to slide. Knowing that the coefficient of static friction between the road and the wheels is 0.60, determine the shortest time needed for the truck to slow down.
