QUESTION 2 A new sports car shown in Figure 2 was tested and it was able to accelerate from west to 100 km/h in 1.75 seconds. The diameter of the tyres are 720mm. Assuming no slippage occurs between the wheels and the road. BA, COA, CLA Figure 2 Dia. 720mm Determine: (a) the maximum linear acceleration, a of the car, and (b) the maximum angular acceleration, amax of the wheels. s, v, a The car was then tested on the race track. It started from rest and accelerated uniformly to a speed of 250 km/h with maximum accerlation. It then travelled at this speed for a distance of 2 km before maximum brake was applied to stop the car. The maximum angular deceleration of the wheels when applying the brakes is 65.45 rad/s². (c) Sketch the Angular Velocity-Time diagram for the wheels during the test. Determine: (d) the maximum angular velocity, @max of the wheels during the process, (e) the number of revolutions, 0 made by the wheels during acceleration, (f) the stopping distance, s when applying the maximun brake from a speed of 250 km/h, (4 marks) (g) the total number of revolutions made by the wheels during the entire process, and (h) the total time taken for the entire process.
