Q1. A car is parked on a steep incline, making an angle of 37.0° below the horizontal and overlooking the ocean, when its brakes fail and it begins to roll. Starting from rest at t = 0, the car rolls down the incline with a constant acceleration of 3.75 m/s2, travelling 47.5 m to the edge of a vertical cliff. The cliff is 30.0 m above the ocean.
Q2. Calculate your reaction time using the equation d = 1/2 gt2 (Solve this equation for time by rearranging it as: t = square root of (2 vertical distance/gravity)). Communicate your distance (d) in meters. Note that g = 9.80 m/s2 for gravity.
