A car is traveling at 40.4 km/hr on flat highway. If the coefficient of friction between road and tires on a rainy day is 0.117, what is the minimum distance in which the car will stop? What is the stopping distance when the surface is dry and the coefficient of friction is 0.576?

The stopping distance of a vehicle is an important safety factor.Assuming a constant braking force, use the work-energy theorem toshow that a vehicle's stopping distance is proportional to thesquare of its initial speed. If an automobile traveling at 45 km/his brought to a stop in 50 m, what would be the stopping distancefor an initial speed of 90 km/h?

Answer: 200 m

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?
