Worked practice questions

As per your syllabus, doubling the INITIAL VELOCITY of a vehicle increases its stopping distance by what factor?

  1. 4 times (since stopping distance ∝ v₀²)
  2. 2 times
  3. 8 times
  4. No change
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. 4 times (since stopping distance ∝ v₀²)

As per your syllabus, d_s ∝ v₀². Doubling v₀ → 4× stopping distance. Important for road safety!
