To solve the problem of how long it will take for a bus traveling at 20 m/s to come to rest under a steady deceleration of 5 m/s², we can use the first equation of motion. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Initial velocity (u) = 20 m/s - Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (since the bus comes to rest) - Acceleration (a) = -5 m/s² (deceleration is taken as negative) ### Step 2: Use the first equation of motion ...
