Equations of Kinematics
A car, moving with a speed of 50 km/hr, can be stopped by brakes after at least 6 m. If the same car is moving at a speed of 100 km/hr, the minimum stopping distance is
Show answer and solution
Answer: (c)
- For the same retardation, .
- Speed doubles (50 to 100 km/h), so .
- So the answer is (c) 24 m.
