With what acceleration must the breaks be applied to stop a vehicle travelling with a speed of 40km/he in 20 seconds |
|
Answer» Answer: -0.555 m/s^2 Explanation: According to the GIVEN question, u = initial velocity = 40 km/h = 40×1000/3600 = 11.1 m/s t = time = 20 sec v = FINAL velocity = 0 m/s a = acceleration and -a = deceleration And we are asked to find the RETARDATION or deceleration of the vehicle. We know,
Putting the values we get
Thus declaration of the vehicle should be 0.5 m/s^2 (approx) in 20 sec to stop the vehicle TRAVELING with 40 km/h . Means acceleration should be -0.5 m/s^2. |
