A driver takes 0.20 s to apply the brakes after he sees a need for it. This is called the reaction time of the driver. If he ils driving a car at a speed of 54 km/h and the brakes cause a deceleration of `6.0 m/s^2`, find the distance travelled by the car after he sees the need to put the brakes on.

A driver takes 0.20 second to apply the brakes (reaction time). If he is driving car at a speed of 54kmh^(-1) and the brakes cause a deceleration of 6.0ms^(-1) ? Find the distance travelled by car after he sees the need to put the brakes.

On seeing red light ahead, a driver takes 0.3 s to apply the brakes. This is called the reaction time of the driver.
