The National Transportation Safety Bureau indicates that a person in a car crash has a reasonable chance of survival if his or her acceleration is less than 300 m/s2. Suppose that the mass of a car is 1200 kg .
See rest of question below in comments:
a) the deceleration required is 300 m/s^2 (as the person inside the car will be accelerated by same amount of force due to inertia)
There fore the for requiredvto stop F= ma
= 1200*300
=360000
=360kN
b) v^2 - u^2 = 2* a* s
u= 21 m/s v=0
-21^2 = -2*300*S
S= 42/600
S=0.07 m

Suppose the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) wants to examine the safety of compact cars, midsize cars, and full-size cars. It collects a sample of cars each of the cars types. The data below displays the frontal crash test performance percentages. Test whether there are statistical differences in the frontal crash test performance for each type of car. FYI: High scores on crash performance tests are GOOD. (Higher scores means they passed the test a higher percent of the time.)...
can someone work this out please?
