A car is traveling up a 3% grade, with the speed of 85mph, on a road that has good, wet pavement. The radius of the wheels is 15 inches, the driveline slippage is 3%, and the overall gear reduction ratio is 2.5 to 1. A deer jumps out onto the road and the driver applies the brakes 290-ft from it. The driver hits the deer at a speed of 20mph. If the driver did not have antilock brakes, and the wheels were locked the entire distance, would a deer-impact speed of 20mph be possible? (Hint: check the braking efficiency) [Use Theoretical Stopping Distance] [15 points]
