Answer:
84.1 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Δx = stopping distance = Vot + 1/2at²
find a (acceleration first):
a = ΔV/t = (0 - 26.5 m/s)/4.85 s = 5.46 m/s²
Δx = (26.5 m/s)(0.75s) + (1/2)(5.46 m/s²)(4.85 s)²
Δx = 19.9 m + 64.2 m = 84.1 m
You will hit the car! During the 0.75 s reaction time, you've already gone 19.9 m, then you need another 64.2 m to come to a complete stop.
