Reference no: EM13699054

Solve the all parts of given problem:

Problem: You are driving to the grocery store at 19m/s. You are 120m from an intersection when the traffic light turns red. Assume that your reaction time is 0.70s and that your car brakes with constant acceleration.

Part I: How far are you from the intersection when you begin to apply the brakes?

Part II: What acceleration will bring you to rest right at the intersection?

Part III: How long does it take you to stop?

I need help to solve the above problem and express your answer using two significant figures.
