Assume that you are driving down a hill in Jabaal Akhdar in a winter season. The inclination of the hill e is 4.1 degrees. The roads are covered partially with ice (coefficient of kinetic friction P = 0.2). When you apply the brake, the car sliding down to stop from an initial speed of 5 m/s. What is the stopping distance of the car (in m)? Hint: final velocity of car = 0. Note: write the answer with one decimal place.
