    hi all

    how is the distance travelled after braking calculated. what is the data required besides the mass of the automobile and the decceleration
    I am assuming you mean what is the distance travelled after coming to rest.
    From particle motion i can see that you will need:
    1. Velocity at the instant the brake was applied
    Simply apply the formula v^2 = u^2 - 2(a)(s)
    where v = 0

    I am not certain how the mass of the car would come in here, maybe someone can help us.
