No, option C is correct. When brake efficiency is high then stopping distance increases.

All are wrong.

It is 0.28vt+0. 01v^2/n.

D is the correct option. It's actually Stopping (non-passing or non-overtaking) sight distance.

Vikas said:   8 years ago
I think the correct option is D.

Chhaya said:   8 years ago
I think option C is wrong because If n in multiplication efficiency decrease of a break then stopping distance also decrease and it is not possible.
