The distance covered by the car is 39.9 m
Explanation:
Since the car is slowing at constant rate, it means that its acceleration is constant, therefore we can solve the problem by using the following suvat equation:
where
s is the distance covered
u is the initial velocity
v is the final velocity
t is the time elapsed
For the car in this problem, we have
u = 19 m/s (initial velocity)
v = 0 (final velocity)
t = 4.2 s (time elapsed)
Therefore, the distance covered is
