Page 5 of 85. As I drive on a back-country road, I suddenly see a deer "frozen" in the headlights. I wasdriving at 11.4 m/s, but immediately apply the brakes and slow with an acceleration of3.80 ".a.If the deer was 20.0 m from my vehicle when the brakes were applied, how close didI come to hitting the deer?b. How much time was needed for my vehicle to stop?

Given Initial speed u=11.4 m/s acceleration a=-3.80m/s2 Distance of deer d=20m
