Question

If a taxi is running with speed of 30 km/h and its stopping distance is 18 m and reaction distance is 9m then find the chasing distance​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Reaction distance is the distance between when  a hazard is detected and when the brake is applied.

Braking distance is the distance covered when the brake is applied and when the vehicle actually stops.

Stopping distance is a sum of the reaction distance and the braking distance, therefore,

Braking distance= Stopping distance -Reaction distance

                           = 18- 9

                           = 9 m
