the stopping distance, s, of a car varies directly as the square of its speed, v. If a car traveling 60 mph requires 220ft to stop find the stopping distance for a car traveling 30 mph
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "d = k*v^2 --- k is a constant
\n" ); document.write( "220 = k*60^2
\n" ); document.write( "k = 220/3600
\n" ); document.write( "================
\n" ); document.write( "at 30 mi/hr:
\n" ); document.write( "d = (220/3600)*30^2
\n" ); document.write( "d = 55 feet\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
