12, Acar travelling at 36kn h speeds u to72 k mhin 5 seconds. What İsis acceleration rif the same carstops in 20 seconds, what is the retardation ?

Answer»

Assuming the acceleration and retardation remain constant in both case.

Case I:

Initial velocity u=36 km/h=36*1000/3600=10 m/s.

Final velocity v=72 km/h=72*1000/3600=20 m/s.

v=u+at

a=(v-u)/t=(20–10)/5=2 m/s^2

So acceleration = 2 m/s^2

Case II:

Initial velocity u =72 km/h= 20 m/s

Final velocity v= 0 m/s

a=(v-u)/t=(0–20)/20=-1 m/s^2

acceleration= -1 m/s^2

retardation/deceleration= +1 m/s^2
