Important Notes
• When v=0 but a≠0, The body changes its direction (Reflection).
• When v=0 & a=0, The body is at rest.
• To Calculate the distance travelled (ST) we have to check if there is
any reflection points (v=0)
𝑆𝑇 = 𝑆2 − 𝑆1 + 𝑆3 − 𝑆2 + 𝑆4 − 𝑆3
• Average speed= 𝑆𝑇ൗ∆𝑡
• Average velocity= ∆𝑆Τ∆𝑡

Tests reveal that a normal driver takes about 0.75 s before he or she can react to a
situation to avoid a collision. It takes about 3 s for a driver having 0.1% alcohol in his

and their cars can decelerate at 2 ft/s2, determine the shortest stopping distance d for
each from the moment they see the pedestrians.
