A car collided with a telephone pole and left 20 ft skid marks on the dry pavement. Based on the damages sustained, an engineer estimated that the speed at collision was 15 mi/h. If the roadway had a 3% grade, calculate the speed of the car at the onset of skidding.

Car A was traveling east at high speed when it collided at point with car B, which was traveling north at 46 mi/h. Car C, which was traveling west at 61 mi/h, was 32 ft east and 10 ft north of point at the time of the collision. Because the pavement was wet, the driver of car C could not prevent his car from sliding into the other two cars, and the three cars, stuck together, kept sliding until they...

Question 2: A car hits a tree at an estimated speed of 25 mi/hr on a 3% upgrade. If skid marks of 120 ft are observed on dry pavement (F=0.35) followed by 250 ft (F=0.25) on a grass-stabilized shoulder, estimate the initial speed of the vehicle just before the pavement skid began.

2. A driver is traveling at 90 mi/h down a 3% grade on good, wet pavement. An accident investigation team noted that braking skid marks started 410 ft before a parked car was hit at an estimated 45 mi/h. Ignoring air resistance, and using theoretical stopping distance, a. what was the braking efficiency of the car? b. If the car’s antilock braking system was effective (no sliding wheels on the pavement), what would the crash speed be?
