The formula for braking distance of a car:
d=0.018268 * v^2/0
where v0 is the initial velocity of the car (feet per second) and d is the braking distance (ft). In this model, the roadway grade is kept constant at 5% and the coefficient of friction at 0.8. In a school zone, you want the maximum breaking distance to be 10 feet since this seems like a reasonable distance to see a child who might be in the way of a driver.

A)What should you set as the speed limit (i. e. initial velocity of the car) so that the breaking distance is 10 feet or less? Round the the nearest foot per second.
feet per second.

B). The equation x^2=9 has two solutions: 3 and -3. With that in mind, what is the other solution to the equation 10=0.018268⋅v^20, besides what you answered in (a)? Why is this other solution not the correct answer to the question in (a)?
The second solution is feet per second.
