A car travelling
with a
velocity of 10 m
is stopped by applying brakes to produce a uniform retardation of 1.25 ms^-2 calculate
the distance by the car before
it come
to rest. Also calculate the time taken by
car to stop
Answers
Answer:
PLEASE MAKE IT BRAINLIEST.
v^2 - u^2 = 2as
v=0 ( as car stops) u = 10m/s a= -1.25 ( retardation is negative)
thetefore
u^2 = 2as
100 = 2 ×1.25 × s
s= 100/2.5
= 40m
Time taken
v = u + at
v=0 u=10 a= -1.25
t= 10/1.25
= 8 sec
Gɪᴠᴇɴ
Initial velocity of car = 10 m/s
Retardation of car = 1.25 m/s²
Tᴏ ꜰɪɴᴅ
Distance travelled by car before coming to rest & time taken to stop.
Sᴏʟᴜᴛɪᴏɴ ❶
As the car comes to rest, so final velocity of car (v) = 0 m/s
Again, retardation of car means negative acceleration.
So, acceleration of car = -1.25 m/s²
Now using equation of motion :
⇒ v² = u² + 2as
⇒ 0² = 10² + 2(-1.25)s
⇒ 0 = 100 - 2.5s
⇒ 100 = 2.5s
⇒ s = 100/2.5
⇒ s = 40 m
Hᴇɴᴄᴇ,
Distance travelled by car is 40 m
Sᴏʟᴜᴛɪᴏɴ ❷
Here, we know equation of motion :
⇒ a = (v - u)/t
⇒ -1.25 = (0 - 10)/t
⇒ -1.25t = -10
⇒ t = -10/-1.25
⇒ t = 8 seconds.
Hᴇɴᴄᴇ,
