Solve the all parts of given question:

Question: The "reaction time" of the average automobile driver is about 0.7s . (The reaction time is the interval between the perception of a signal to stop and the application of the brakes.) An automobile can slow down with an acceleration of 11.0ft/s2.

Part A: Compute the total distance covered in coming to a stop after a signal is observed from an initial velocity of 15.8mi/h.

Part B: Compute the total distance covered in coming to a stop after a signal is observed from an initial velocity of 51.6mi/h.

Please include each step and the equations you used. Thanks!
