    Regarding coefficents in physics
    You are driving a 2460.0 kg car at a constant speed of 14.0 m/s along an icy, but straight, level road. As you approach an intersection, the traffic light turns red. You slam on the brakes. Your wheels lock, the tires begin skidding, and the car slides to a halt in a distance of 24.5 m. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between your tires and the icy road?

Coefficents for exponential trend analysis [ 2 Answers ]

Hello! I was wondering if there was at table of values that I could use for general weights (coefficents) of orthogonal contrasts for exponential trend analysis. The highest may start anywhere near 10 and the lowest starting point may start anywhere near 4 or 5. I just want the points for a...

What is the average speed, if a person drives for 30.0 min at 80.0 km/h, 12.0 min at 100 km/h, and 45.0 min at 40.0 km.h and spends 15.0 min eating lunch and buying gas? The back of my textbook states that the answer is 52.9, but I don't know how to solve it!!
