To get the answer in SI units...we will do the conversions-
36km/hr * 5/18 = 10m/s
70km/hr*5/18 = 21.5 m/s
From 1st equtn of motion-
V=u+at
(21.5-10)/5 = a
a= 2.3 m/s*s
Now, the initial speed of the car (u) is 70 km/hr or 21.5m/s and as the car is stopping, The final speed (v) is zero -
0= 21.5 -at
21.5/ 20 = retardation
Retardation = 1.075 m/s*s
