A bus moving on a level road with a velocity v can be stopped at a distance of x by the application of a retarding force F The load on the bus is increased by 25% by boarding the passengers. Now if the bus is moving with the same speed and if the same retarding force is applied the distance travelled by the bus before it stops is .

An unloaded bus can be stopped by applying brakes on straight road after covering distance x. Suppose. The passengers add 40% of its weight as the load the braking force remains same. How far will the bus go after the application of the breakes? (Velocity of bus is same in both the cases)
