Question

A car travelling with a velocity of 72km/hr. Pressing the brakes suddenly it is retarded to 0.5m/s/2. How far it will travel before coming to rest?

Answer 1

Answer:

Retardation =2ms

−2

Time =5s

So, decrease in velocity = retardation × time =(2×5)ms

−1

=10ms

−1

Initial velocity =20ms

−1

So, final velocity = (initial velocity) − (decrease in velocity) =(20−10)ms

−1

=10ms
