Value of friction coefficient will be 30.
So v2/2 * 30 * 9.81.
= 8.33^2/2 * 30 * 9.81.

8.33^2/2 * .30 * 9.81,
= 11.78~~12.

Stopping dist.= (0.2 *vb+6).
= (0.2*30+6) = 12.

Braking distance is vt.

So it is 0.4 for brakes are effective in case. Now 0.4*30. And we will get 12.

For speed (kmph) and longitudinal coefficient of friction (f).
20-30 -> 0.4.
40. -> 0.38.
50 ->0.37.
60 -> 0.36.
65 -> 0.36.
80 -> 0.35.
100 -> 0.35.

s = i+0.7xVb,
Where i = 6m( vehicle base length).
Vb = 8.33 in m/s.
s = 11.83 ----> 12m.

F = u^2/29*L
L = 8.33*2/19*0.2 = 11.96~12m.

Assume f = .20.

S = (0.7* Vb) + 6.
Where Vb = 30*5/18.
=8.33m/s.

Therefore,
S = (0.7*8.33)+6.
=11.83~12m.
