Answer: Car collide with man
Explanation:
Given
Speed of car is [tex]u=30\ m/s[/tex]
Distance of the man from the car is [tex]s=55\ m[/tex]
Reaction time [tex]t_r=0.5\ s[/tex]
Rate of deceleration [tex]a_d=-10\ m/s^2[/tex]
Distance traveled in the reaction time [tex]d_o=30\times 0.5=15\ m[/tex]
Net effective distance to cover [tex]d=55-15=40\ m[/tex]
Distance required to stop the car
[tex]\Rightarrow v^2-30^2=2(-10)(s)\\\Rightarrow 0-900=-20s\\\Rightarrow s=45\ m[/tex]
Require distance is more than that of net effective distance. Hence, car collides with the man.
