ii). A car moving along a straight road with a
speed of 120 km/hr, is brought to rest by
applying brakes. The car covers a distance
of 100 m before it stops. Calculate
(i) the
average retardation of the car (ii) time
taken by the car to come to rest.
[Ans: 50/9 m/sec, 6 sec)
Answers
Explanation:
given that,
Initial speed of the car ,u = 120 km/hr = 33.33 m/s
Finally it comes to rest, v = 0
Distance ,s = 100m
a) Let a is the average retardation, Using third equation of motion as:
b) Leti is the time taken by the car to come to rest. It is given by:
Hence, this is the required equation
♡Answer:-♡࿐
A car moving along a straight road with a speed of 120 km/hr, is brought to rest by applying brakes, The car covers a distance of 100 m before it stops.
☆To find:-
. The average retardation of the car
. Time taken by the car to come to rest
Solution :-
Initial velocity (u) =120 km/h
final velocity (v) = 0
Distance covered (s) =100m
➞ u = 120 × 5/18
➞ u= 100 /3 m /s
According to third equation of motion.
➞ v2 = u2 + 2as
➞ (0) = (10000) /3) + 2×a×100
➞ 0 = 10000 /9 = 200a
➞ a = -10000/9×200
➞ a = - 1000/9 × 200
➞a = -100/18
➞a=-50/9
☆Hence,
Retardation of a car is 50/9m/s
First equation of motion
➞V=u+at
➞V =U + at
➞0=100/3+(-50) 19×t
➞0 = 100/3-50t
➞50t/9=100/3
➞t=9×100/50×3
➞t=3×2
➞t=6 sec
