Answer:
d = 57.87 m
Explanation:
It is given that,
Acceleration of car due to applied brake is [tex]-5.4\ m/s^2[/tex]
Its initial speed was 25 m/s
Its final speed was 0 as its comes to rest.
Leat d is the distance covered by the car. It can be calculated using third equation of kinematics as :
[tex]v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\d=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\d=\dfrac{0^2-(25)^2}{2\times (-5.4)}\\\\d=57.87\ m[/tex]
So, the distance covered by the car is 57.87 m.
