The minimum distance to stop a car is x ...

The minimum distance to stop a car is x when it is moving with a velocity v, then what will be the minimum distance to stop it in the same time when it will move with a velocity mv.

A

`m^2 x`

B

`mx`

C

`x//m^2`

D

`x//m`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`v^2 = u^2 + 2as`
`0^2 = v^2 - 2 xx ax`
`implies x = (v^2)/(2a) " "....(i)`
`0^2 = (mv)^2 - 2 xx ay`
`implies y = (mv^2)/(2a)`
`y = mx " "` from (i)
