Mandy asks…Determining car stopping distance?Determine the stopping distance in meters for a car (initial speed of 11.2 m/s ) with human reaction time of 1.0 s and maximum braking acceleration -7.55 m/s2 .
I don't need the answer...just help with the equations please!!Nancy answers:T=11.2/7.55 = 1.48s "stop from braking"
vo=11.2 m/s
a=-7.55 m/s^2
t=vo/a
x1 = vo*t+ (1/2)*a*t^2
reaction distance traveled:
x2=vo * 1 second
x=x1+x2****Daniel asks…Braking distance of a car.. help?The
