Solution :-

Given that ,

  • Initial Velocity of car = 44km / hr.
  • Final Velocity of car = 0km / hr.
  • Acceleration = -5km/hr².

To Find :

  • Time taken to stop the car .

So , here use first equⁿ of motion which is ,


\boxed{\red{\bf\dag v = u + at }}

where ,

  • v is final Velocity.
  • u is Initial velocity.
  • a is acceleration.
  • t is time taken.

Now , substituting the respective values ,


\tt:\implies v=u+at


\tt:\implies 0 = 44 + (-5)t


\tt:\implies -44 = -5t


\tt:\implies t=(44)/(5)


\underline{\boxed{\red{\tt \longmapsto Time\:\:=\:\:8.8hrs.}}}


\boxed{\green{\bf\pink{\dag} Hence\:time\:taken\:to\:stop\:the\:car\:is\:8.8hrs.}}
