In an accident investigation police measured the skidmarks left my vehicle. they measure the skidmarks to be 150 m from the point where the driver applied the brakes to where the car came to rest. In their investigation the police Sumat the driver was traveling at this bead limit of 80 km/h (22m/s) when the brakes were applied. Calculate the acceleration of the vehicle.
ok so i know acceleration is
d= delta v
----------
delta t
= vf - vi
-------
delta t
but because this question has no initial point. What do I use? Do I just started off as zero OR do I have to solve for something? can someone please help me. thank you
