Consider two cars, a 1,700 kg BMW and a 1,500 kg Mercedes-Benz. The BMW is speeding along at 120 km/h and the Mercedes-Benz is going half the speed at 60 km/h. If the two cars brake to a stop with the same constant acceleration, a. Is the amount of time required to come to a stop influenced by their initial velocity? Explain your answer using diagrams, equations, or any explanatory rules/principle b. Is the distance travelled prior to stopping influenced by their initial velocity? Explain your answer using diagrams, equations, or any explanatory rules/principles
