A car slows down from 108 km/hr to 18 km/hr over a distance of 40 meter. If the brakes are applied with the same force . Calculate 

1) total time in which car comes to rest .

2) total distance travelled by it.

Expert Answer
When, u = 108 km/h = 30 m/s
and v = 18 km/h = 5 m/s
s = 40 m 
 
We can calculate the acceleration using 3rd equation of motion: - 
 
v2 - u2 = 2as 
(5)2 - (30)2 = 2 a (40) 
 
25 - 900 = 80a
a = - 10.93 m/s2 
Negative sign indicates that it is retardation. 
 
i)Total time in which car comes to rest: - 
As the brakes are applied with same force to bring car to rest, acceleration remains same i.e. 10.93 m/s2. 
 
v = 0, u = 30 m/s 
a = -10.93 m/s2 
 
Thus, 
v = u + at 
0 = 30 + (-10.93) t 
-30 = -10.93 t 
Thus, 
t =  2.74 s
 
ii) Distance travelled by car during this time is given by, 
 
v2 - u2 = 2as 
(0)2 - (30)2 = 2(-10.93) s
 
- 900 = 21.86 s 
s =  41.17 m

A train starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at A rate of 2ms-1 for 10-s.It then maintains A constant speed for 200 s. Tge brakes are then applied and the train is uniformly retarded and comes to rest in 50 s. Find (i) the maximum velocity reached(ii) the retardation in the last 50 s (iii) the total distance travelled, and (iv) the average velocity of the train.
