When the speed of a car is `u`, the mimimum distance over which it canbe stopped is `a`, If speed becomes `nu`, what will be the mimimum distance over which it can be stopped during the same time?

A

` s//h`

B

` ns`

C

` s//n^(2)`

D

`n^(2) s`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`v^(2)-u^(2)=2as` , `v=0`
`prop u^(2)`,
When the initial velocity is made `n` times, the distance over which it can be stopped becomes `n^(2)` times.

When the speed of the car is v, the minimum distance over which it can be stopped is x. If the speed becomes nv, what will be the minimum distance over which it can be stopped during same time:

If x is the distance at which a car can be stopped when initially it was moving with speed u, then on making the speed of the car Nu, the distance at which the car can be stopped is

A driver having a definite reaction time is capable of stopping his car over a distance of 30 m on seeing a red traffic signal, when the speed of the car is 72 km/hr andover a distance of 10 m when the speed is 36 km/hr. Find the distance over which he can stop the car if it were running at a speed of 54 km/hr. Assume that his reaction time and the deceleration of the car remains same in all the three cases.
