If bus travelling at 20m/s is subject to steady deceleration of 5m/s, how long will it take to came to rest ? |
Answer» Given:-•Initial velocity(u)=20m/s •Deceleration=5m/s² =>Thus,acceleration(a)= -5m/s² •Final velocity(v)=0 (as finally the bus'll come to rest) To find:-•Time taken by the bus to come to rest(t) Solution:-By,using the 1st equation of motion,we get------- =>v=u+at =>0=20+(-5)t =>0-20= -5T =>-20=-5t =>t= -20/-5 =>t=4s Thus,the bus will take a time of 4 seconds to come to rest. |
