Two trucks A ...

Question

Two trucks A and B are moving with the same kinetic energy. A is twice as massive as B. The same brake force is applied on A and B and they stop over distances a and b. The correct relation between $a$ and $b$ is:

Solution

The correct option is A $a = b$
$K_{A} = K_{B}$
$m_{A} = 2 m_{B}$
$K_{A} = F a$
$K_{B} = F b$
Since $K_{A} = K_{B}$ , $a = b$
