A 1200 kg car is travelling at a high rate of speed (V0) as it reaches the summit of a small hill that can be approximated by the equation y=1.25sin(0.3x)+cos (0.07x)-5 from x= 0 to 50m. At the summit of the hill a deer runs in front of the car, and the driver applies the breaks. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the car and the road is \muk=0.7 A.) What is the instantaneous braking force developed for initial velocities of V0= 40, 65, and 90 mph B.) If the deer is 5 m in front of the car and running with a velocity of 15 m/s at an angle \alpha= 35o from the direction of travel of the car, what is the relative velocity between the deer and car at the moment the car applies its brakes for the three different initial velocities. *Remember that the deer is also running downhill at a certain angle
