Doubling the speed of car =x2 speed or velocity
whenever the brakes applied car take some time to come to an rest position as per Newtons 1St law [Dynamic inertia]
So first Car's momentum or Fnet = m x a
since acceleration is doubled M also doubles
so, impact force increases
hence car take double time to stop when x2 speed and brakes applied
