An alert driver can apply the brakes fully in about 0.5 seconds. How far would the car travel if it

were moving at a rate of 29.06 m/sec?

The car would travel after applying brakes is, d = 14.53 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The time taken to apply brakes fully is, t = 0.5 s

The velocity of the car, v = 29.06 m/s

The distance traveled by the car in 0.5 s, d = ?

The relation between the velocity, displacement, and time is given by the formula

d = v x t m

Substituting the values in the above equation,

d = 29.06 m/s x 0.5 s

= 14.53 m

Therefore, the car would travel after applying brakes is, d = 14.53 m
