The equation d=v squared/15.68 represents the relationship between the distance d needed to stop a vehicle and the velocity v of the vehicle. Approximate the velocity of the vehicle when it takes 40 meters to stop.



Answer :

Answer:

V = 25m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]d = \frac{ {v}^{2} }{15.68} [/tex]

when d = 40m,

[tex] {v}^{2} = 15.68d \: = 15.68 \times 40 = 627.2[/tex]

Take square roots of both sides

[tex]v \: = \sqrt{627.2} = 25.05[/tex]

V = 25m/s
