Question 1128453: The formula for breaking distance is:
d= V2/(2g(f+G))
d=breaking distance
g=acceleration due to gravity (32.2ft/sec2)
G=roadway grade as a percentage
V=initial vehicle speed (ft/sec)
f=coefficient of friction between the tires and the roadway.
f=0.8 and G=0.05
Calculate the breaking distance for a car traveling at 75 miles per hour.
Thank you!

Hey,  in this forum the tutors are not going to do the job which is  YOUR  duty.


MEMORIZE:   Doing calculations is the  students' honor duty and a privilege.


            Happy calculations !
