document.write( "1.  First calculate deceleration  a =  = 4.027778 m/s^2.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    Next calculate the distance  d =  =  = 104.4 meters.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "2.  Or do the calculation, using average speed    =  = 14.5 m/s.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "    Then the distance to the rest is  d =  = 14.5*7.20 = 104.4 meters  --- the same answer.\r\n" );
