You are going on an outing, and you are driving your car at 25m/s when you need to quickly reduce the car's speed to 12m/s to round a curve in a highway going to Mabini. If the deceleration has a magnitude of 8m/s^2, how far does your car travel while reducing the speed? And what is the time needed to round the curve?
