Wile E
Subject:PhysicsPrice:3.86 Bought12
Wile E. Coyote (mass 25.0 kg) runs towards the Road Runner, whom he thinks is standing in the middle of the road. Unfortunately it's a mirage - what he thought was Road Runner is actually a pile of dynamite. He doesn't notice this until he is running at a full speed of 20.0 m/s, 20 meters away from the dynamite. He tries to skid to a stop along the desert pavement with a coefficient of friction 4, = 0.60.
a. What is the force of friction acting on Wile E. Coyote? Assume Fgrav = Fnorm
b. If friction is the only acting horizontal force, what is Wile E. Coyote’s acceleration?
c. How fast will Wile E. Coyote be going when he hits the dynamite?
