Answer:
Since there is negative acceleration, a= -2m/s^2 . As brakes are applied, it's final velocity (v) becomes 0m/s and it's initial velocity (u) will be 20m/s .
So to find the time for which my Nano will stop we make use of one of the kinematical equation.
v=u+at Â
0=20+(−2)t Â
−20=−2t Â
t=10seconds. Â
So my Nano will take 10 seconds to stop.
Now to calculate the distance for which my Nano will stop is given by;
v2=u2+2ax Â
(0)2=(20)2+2(−2)x Â
0=400−4x Â
−400=−4x Â
x=100metres. Â
So after applying brakes my Nano will stop after a distance of 100m.
