Question:

Write a program to solve Problem 3.123 for a range of initial velocities. Let the car mass and final velocity be input variables.


Data from Problem 3.123

A car with mass 1275 kg is driven at 60 km/h when the brakes are applied quickly to decrease its speed to 20 km/h. Assume that the brake pads have a 0.5-kg mass with a heat capacity of 1.1 kJ/kg K and that the brake disks/drums are 4.0 kg of steel. Further assume that both masses are heated uniformly. Find the temperature increase in the brake assembly.
