    A car moving with a speed of 50 km/h, can be stopped by brakes after at least 6 m. If the same car is moving at a speed of 100 km/h, the minimum stopping distance is

    A)  12 m     

    B)                         18 m

    C)  24 m                    

    D)         6 m

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[{{v}^{2}}={{u}^{2}}+2as\]                 \[0={{\left( 50\times \frac{5}{18} \right)}^{2}}+2a\times 6\] \[a=-16\,\,m/{{s}^{2}}\]                                (\[a=\]retardation) Again     \[{{v}^{2}}={{u}^{2}}+2as\]                 \[0={{\left( 100\times \frac{5}{18} \right)}^{2}}-16\times 2\times s\]                 \[s=\frac{{{(100\times 5)}^{2}}}{18\times 18\times 32}\approx 24\,\,m\]
