(a) The 6.2L LT4 Supercharged Aluminum V8 engine was advertised to deliver 484.5 kW at 5250 RPM and 7800 lbf- in (pounds force- inches) of torque. Do the numbers for power match? Show and solve the equation/s indicating if they match or not. VCORVETTE (b) Regarding braking ability, Edmunds advertised that the stopping distance for the Corvette when traveling at 60 miles per hour is 90 ft. The Corvette is fitted with Brembo brakes that are said to provide a stopping force in the order of 5000 lbf. Do these numbers make sense? The Corvette weights 3525 lbf. Show and solve the equation/s indicating if they do make sense or not. Hint: Use the appropriate relationship for uniform deceleration in rectilinear motion.
