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. Expression for stopping distance of a vehicle in terms of v0 and a is:
ds = v022a
ds = -v022a
ds = -v02a
ds = -2av02
You can measure your reaction time by a simple experiment. Take a ruler and ask your friend to drop it vertically through the gap between your thumb and forefinger (Fig. shown below). After you catch it if the distance d travelled by the ruler is 21.0 cm, your reaction time is:
0.2 s
0.4 s
0 s
0.1 s
Galileo’s law of odd numbers: “The distances traversed, during equal intervals of time, by a body falling from rest, stand to one another in the ratio:
as the odd numbers beginning with unity.
as the even numbers beginning with unity.
as the square of odd numbers beginning with unity.
as the square of even numbers beginning with unity.

Train A and train B are running on parallel tracks in the opposite directions with speeds of 36 km/hour and 72 km/hour, respectively. A person is walking in train A in the direction opposite to its motion with a speed of 1.8 km/hr. Speed (in ms–1) of this person as observed from train B will be close to : (take the distance between the tracks as negligible)
