प्रश्न

A car moving along a straight highway with a speed of 126 km h–1 is brought to a stop within a distance of 200 m. What is the retardation of the car (assumed uniform), and how long does it take for the car to stop?

संख्यात्मक

उत्तर

Initial velocity of the car, u = 126 km/h =`(126xx1000)/(60xx60)` ms-1 35 m/s

Final velocity of the car, v = 0

Distance covered by the car before coming to rest, s = 200 m

Retardation produced in the car = a

From third equation of motion, a can be calculated as:

`v^2 - u^2 = 2as`

∴ `(0)^2 - (35)^2 = 2 xx a xx 200`

`a = (35 xx 35)/(2xx200) = -3.06 "m/s"^2`

From first equation of motion, time (t) taken by the car to stop can be obtained as:

v = u + at

`t = (v-u)/a = (-35)/-3.06 = 11.44 s`
