A car moving with a speed of 50 km/h, can be stopped by brakes after at least 6 m. If the same car is moving at a speed of 100 km/h, the minimum stopping distance is :

A

12 m

B

18 m

C

24 m

D

6 m

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c

If speed of a body become n time then distance require to stop the body by same force become `n^(2)` times sinc velocity is doubled\distance become 4 times.
`i.e. x_(2)=4x_(1)=4xx6=24 m`
