Hi Kuruman and thankyou for your answer. I'm not sure I totally understand the equation though. Is this how I would find distance based on the information I have? I'm not totally sure how I would use the work-energy theorem to solve this perticular problem either.

Homework Statement A lorry is driving at 96 km h^−1. The driver decelerates to a speed of 48 km h^−1. Given that the deceleration is 2.68 m s^−2 find the distance over which the brakes are applied. I know the initial speed of the lorry, v = 96 km h^-1 = 26.67 m s^-1 I know the final...
