A car moves with a speed of 100m/s and comes to rest by applying brakes in 10sec.Find the retardation.
Answers
Answer:
10m/s²
Explanation:
initial velocity = u = 0m/s
Speed = velocity = v = 100m/s
time = t = 10s
acceleration = a = v-u
t
so 100-0
10
= 100/10 = 10m/s²

- Retardation is -10 m/s²
GiveN :
- A car moving with a speed of 100 m/s
- It comes to rest after applying breaks, in 10 seconds.
To FinD :
- Retardation (a)
SolutioN :
• We are given that a car is moving with a speed of 100 m/s. So, it means initial velocity is 100 m/s.
• Breaks are applied to the car and it comes to rest. So, it means final velocity is 0 m/s.
• Time interval to come to rest is given as 10 seconds.
So, with this data we come to know that :
- Initial velocity (u) = 100 m/s
- Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s
- Time interval (t) = 10 seconds
For calculating acceleration we've to use first equation of motion.
Acceleration is 10 m/s² , negative sign shows that acceleration is applied in opposite direction of motion (which is also known as retardation) .
