A motor cycle is being driven at a speed of 20 m/s when brakes are applied to bring it to rest in five seconds the deccerlation produced in case is?
Answers
Answer:
In this case,
u (Initial Velocity) = 20 m/sec
v (final velocity) = 0 m/sec (at rest)
time (t) = 5 secs
a = (v-u) /t
a= (0 - 20) / 5
a= -20 / 5
a = -4 m/sec square
Therefore Deceleration produced is 4 m/sec square

AnswEr :
Given that a motor cycle is being driven at a speed of 20 m/s. When brakes are applied it comes to rest in 5 seconds.
We have to find deceleration produced in the case.
From the given conditions we have :
➡ Initial speed (u) = 20 m/s
➡ Final speed (v) = 0 m/s [∵ It comes to rest]
➡ Time (t) = 5 seconds.
As we know the 1st equation of motion, we will use that equation here :-
→ v = u + at
Substituting values,
→ 0 = 20 + a × 5
→ 0 = 20 + 5a
→ 5a + 20 = 0
→ 5a = -20
→ a = -20/5
→ a = -4 m/s²
[∵ Acceleration = - Deceleration ]
∴ Deceleration (d) = 4 m/s²
∴ Deceleration produced in that case = 4 m/s² or, acceleration is -4 m/s² [Answer]
