Mr. Turner is driving through downtown Houston at 35 MPH (15.56 m/s). This is above the posted speed limit and there are cars parked alongside the curb in the lane next to Mr. Turner. Of course, a large delivery truck ahead looks like it is parked and driverless, but the driver's door swings open into the lane ahead of Mr. Turner. Mr. Turner's reaction time is 3/4th's of a second and the stopping distance at his speed is 1.7 meters. The driver exiting the delivery truck is 13.3 meters ahead. Can Mr. Turner stop in time? What is the vehicle's acceleration when the brakes are applied? How far will the vehicle travel before Mr. Turner engages the brake?

(I need someone to explain this to me)
