1. \(56~\text{m}\)
2. \(64~\text{m}\)
3. \(80~\text{m}\)
4. \(128~\text{m}\)

A car moving with a velocity of \(10\ \text{m/s}\) can be stopped by the application of a constant force \(F\) in a distance of \(20\ \text{m}\). If the velocity of the car is \(30\ \text{m/s}\), it can be stopped by this force in:

1. \(\dfrac {20}{3} \ \text{𝑚}\)

2. \(20\ \text{m}\)

3. \(60\ \text{m}\)

4. \(180\ \text{m}\)

Two trains travelling on the same track are approaching each other with equal speeds of \(40\ \text{m/s}\). The drivers of the trains begin to decelerate simultaneously when they are just \(2.0\ \text{km}\) apart. Assuming the decelerations to be uniform and equal, the value of the deceleration to barely avoid collision should be:

1. \(11.8\ \text{m/s}^2\)
2. \(11.0\ \text{m/s}^2\)
3. \(1.6\ \text{m/s}^2\)
4. \(0.8\ \text{m/s}^2\)
