how long will it take a vehicle traveling 80km/h [w] to stop if the average stopping distance for that velocity is 86.0m

1 answer

To calculate the stopping time, we need to divide the stopping distance by the velocity of the vehicle.

Stopping distance = 86.0 m
Velocity = 80 km/h = 80,000 m/h

Stopping time = Stopping distance / Velocity
Stopping time = 86.0 m / (80,000 m/h)
Stopping time ≈ 0.001075 hours

So, it will take approximately 0.001075 hours for a vehicle traveling at 80 km/h to stop when the average stopping distance is 86.0 meters.
