Exercise 6
Stopping distance with reaction time
Theory used: Relation between velocity and displacementUniform rectilinear motionLaws of uniformly accelerated motion
A car travels at . The driver sees an obstacle and reacts after , during which the velocity remains constant; then the driver brakes with a constant deceleration of magnitude . Compute the stopping distance.
