Unit Conversion

Standard units are also called SI units. SI units are used for measuring a physical quantity satisfying certain conditions. There are two types of units: fundamental units and derived units. Fundamental units are physical quantities that are independent, that is, they do not depend on other quantities like mass, length, or time. There are plenty of quantities in our lives which need to be measured and compared. Measuring is the comparison of a particular physical quantity with its reference value. A unit is a measure of a fixed physical quantity. A physical quantity is the product of a unit and the numerical value we need to compare with.

Question

The braking distance of a car from 80 km/h
is 40 m assuming the pavement is level.
(a) if the pavement is with 6° inclination,
what will be the braking distance (in meter)

(b) and if the car is going down at 4%
inclination, what is its braking distance (in
meter) from 80km/h?
Note: Assume the breaking force is not
dependent of the grade.
