Answer:
22.5 m
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial velocity (u) = 30 m/s
Time (t) = 1.5 s
Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s
Distance (s) =?
The distance to which the car move before stopping from the time the driver applied the brake can be obtained as follow:
s = (u + v)t/2
s = (30 + 0)1.5 / 2
s = (30 × 1.5) / 2
s = 45 / 2
s = 22.5 m
Thus, the car will move to a distance of 22.5 m before stopping from the time the driver applied the brake.
