A trailer is hitched to a car. The car and trailer are traveling at when the driver applies the brakes on both the car and the trailer. Knowing that the braking forces exerted on the car and the trailer are and , repectively, determine: (a) the distance traveled by the car and trailer before they come to a stop and (b) the horizontal component of the force exerted by the trailer hitch on the car.

A car with a mass of 1300 kg is initially moving at a speed of 40 km/h when the brakes are applied and the car is brought to a stop in 15 m. Assuming that the force that stops the car is constant, find (a) the magnitude of that force and (b) the time required for the change in speed. If the initial speed is doubled and the car experiences the same force during the braking, by what factors are (c) the stopping distance and (d) the stopping time multiplied?
