Question
A truck and a car are moving with equal velocity. On applying the brakes both will stop after certain distance, then
- Truck will cover less distance before rest
- Car will cover less distance before rest
- Both will cover equal distance
- None
The correct answer is: Both will cover equal distance
Stopping distance

So both will cover equal distance
