Answer:

b) Distance covered before stopping.

Explanation:

If you want to find the distance d required to come to a stop starting at some initial speed v, with braking acceleration a, use the kinematic relation  

vf2 - vi2 = 2ad

vi = initial speed at the moment braking begins = v

vf = final speed = 0 (comes to a full stop)

-v2 = 2ad

d = -v2/(2a)

Answer:

The correct option is;

C) Equatorial coordinate system

Explanation:

The equatorial coordinate system is which has the most wide spread use in coordinate system for astronomy for mapping the location of celestial bodies such as stars by use of an imaginary projected celestial sphere or to rectangular coordinates with the Earth at the center.  Extending the Earth's axis onto the celestial sphere is essentially the projection of the Earths axis outwards to intersect the sphere at the celestial poles.
