Jazzie is driving car and was travelling at 75 km/hr in a straight road. However, the car in front of Jazzie which was driven by George suddenly stopped, so Jazzie had to press the brakes to avoid any accidents. Jazzie begins to decelerate at a rate of 5.7 m/s. Determine the following: (a) Jazzie's initial speed in m/s b. Time it takes to reach a complete stop C. The distance covered until reaching a full stop. d. If Jazzie's car is 10 m in front of George's car, would they collide with each other?
