A car travelling at a speed of 10m/s stops in 4 sec. after the application of brakes.If we assume the retardation to be constant, then a)Draw a speed - time graph for the above information. b) Find the retardation. c) Find the distance travelled during this time.​

Answer»

Initial SPEED = u = 10 m/s
time duration to stop = t= 4 s
Final speed = v = 0
ACCELERATION , magnitude = (v-u)/t
a = -10/4 = - 2.5 m/s^2

Distance covered before HALTING
s = u t + 1/2 a t^2
s = 10 * 4 - 1/2 * 2.5 * 4^2 m
s = 20 m
