What was your reaction time

Reference no: EM13314028

You are driving down the road at 60 km/hr when you see a chicken dash out onto the road 23.3 m in front of you. After reacting, you slam on the brakes, and the car decelerates at 7 m/s2. The car stops just in time to avoid hitting the chicken. What was your reaction time? Solve using kinematics equations.
