Surfing For Reaction Distance Car?

Charles asks…Physics Question - Kinematics?The minimum stopping distance for a car traveling at a speed of 30 m/s is 60 m, including the distance traveled during the driver's reaction time of 0.720 s.

What is the minimum stopping distance for the same car traveling at a speed of 38.0 m/s?Nancy answers:88.971 mLaura asks…Complicated Kinematics Question?To stop a car, first you require a certain reaction time to begin braking. Then the car slows down at a constant rate. Suppose that the
