Part 1:
A motorist is traveling at 17 m/s when he sees a deer in the road 45 m ahead.
If the maximum negative acceleration of vehicle is -7 m/s^2, what is the maximum reaction time (deltat) of the motorist that will allow him to avoid hitting the deer? Answer in units of...
Thanks for your reply PhanthomJay
I used the method that you suggested for calculating the volume
((0.31)*(0.02)*(1.53))*2 + (0.24)*(0.02)*(1.53) = 0.026316 m^2
thus, mass= 0.026316 m^2 * density of iron= 198.949 Kg
I rounded it to 1 significant figures and I got 2.0e2 kg
Good news ...
