Motion in a straight line

Stopping distance of
vehicles : When brakes are applied to a
moving vehicle, the distance it travels before
stopping is called stopping distance. It is
an important factor for road safety and
depends on the initial velocity (v0
) and the
braking capacity, or deceleration, –a that
is caused by the braking. Derive an
expression for stopping distance of a vehicle
in terms of vo
anda.
