Solution

The correct option is D $(0.0125 s)$
Acceleration $a = - 4 m / s^{2}$
Initial velocity $u = 10 m / s$
Distance traveled $x = 12 c m = 12 \times 10^{- 2} m$
From kinematics, $v^{2} - u^{2} = 2 a x$
$v^{2} = u^{2} + 2 a x$
$= 100 + 2 \times (- 4) \times 12 \times 10^{- 2}$
$= 100 - 0.96 = 99.04$
$v = 9.95 m / s$
$v = u + a t$
$t = \frac{v - u}{a}$
$= \frac{9.95 - 10}{- 4} = 0.0125 s$
