Ifyou answer more than 4 questions your final result ‘wll be averaged overall questions attempted, Incude explanations justy any assumptions simplifications you are aking in onder in solution tthe probes Question "Dare Devi” Dan planing an tempt o ump his a across he Nepean iver.

The coefficient of restiation for billiard ball impact can be assumed to ‘be 0.9. The cue ball weighs 170 gms 4) predict the velocity and direction of the red bal after the Impact, assuming the red ball mass is the same asthe cue ball 'b) predict the velocity and rection ofthe red ball after impact if instead the actual mass ofthe red bal is used which i 160 gms ‘Anew speed camera has been installed at an intersection and measures angular rate of movement of vehicles rather ‘han just being aimed along the road to ‘measure on-coming speed. The aim of this new camera isto measure vehicle speeds regardless ofthe direction cas are going through the intersection. The speed limit inthis area is 60 kewhe ‘The camera system measures radial distance toa vehicle and angular position along with the rates of change ‘of these two properties r, drtdt, 0, d0lde Bir os viow of 4) write a formula that wil predict the speed of vehicle based on the camera systems four measurements, car tries to avoid being recorded by the system by turing the comer at speed. Ifthe maximum coefficient of flction that canbe applied to the tires before the car skids sideways is 0.2, predict the ‘maximum speed thatthe car can go around the comer without skidding The car weighs 2000 Kg and the radius of tum attempted is 20m 28 Question 5 ‘Acar trying totum the comer at too great a sped skids off the road and collides head on witha ‘ree. The tree canbe assumed t be an immovable object. The fron ofthe car crumples in under the impact and is compressed a dsiance of 0.5m. The time between impact and the car coming to rest is @ mere 0.05 sec. The car weighs 2000 Ke, 18) estimate the sped ofthe car just ‘before impact. estimate an average deceleration ofthe car during ths impact. ©) estimate the work done by the teee in compressing the ca. «what isthe average force applied tothe tee?
