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