A truck of mass 5 ton is travelling on a horizontal road with 36 km `hr^(-1)` stops on traveling 1 km after its engine fails suddenly. What fraction of its weight is the frictional force exerted by the road? If we assume that the story repeats for a car of mass 1 ton i.e., can moving with same speed stops in similar distance same how much will the fraction be?

An automobile travelling with a speed of 60 km h^-1 can apply brakes to stop after covering a distance of 20 m. If the car is going iwit as fast i.e., 120 km h^-1 , the stopping distance will be

Consider a car moving along a straight horizontal road with a speed of 36 km/h. If the coefficient of static friction between road and tyers is 0.4, the shortest distance in which the car can be stopped is (Take g=10 m//s2)

A hydraulic brake system of a car of mass 1000 kg having speed of 50 km//hr . has a cylindrical piston of radius of 0.5 cm. The slave cylinder has a radius of 2.5 cm. if a constant force of 100 N is applied on the brake what distance the car will travel before coming to stop?

A hydraluic brake system of a car of mass 1000 kg having speed of 50 km/h, has a cylindrical piston of radius of 0.5 cm. The slave cylinder has a radius of 2.5 cm. If a constant force of 100 N is applied on the brake what distance the car will travel before coming to stop ?
