Assume that the brakes in your car create a constant deceleration of 4.2 m/s2 regardless of how fast you are driving. If you double your driving speed from 16 m/s to 32 m/s, (a) does the time required to come to a stop increase by a factor of two or a factor of four? Explain. Verify your answer to part (a) by calculating the stopping limes for initial speeds of (b) 16 m/s and (c) 32 m/s.
