But with the wheels locked, the car skids or slides, to a stop, of tern out of control. To prevent this many newer automobiles have computerized antilock braking system (ABS). When the brakes are applied firmly and the car begins to slide, sensors in the wheels note this. In turn ABS momentarily releases the brakes and then varies the brake fluid pressure with a pumping action upto thirteen times a second so that the wheels will continue to roll without slipping. In the absence of sliding, both roiling friction and static friction act. In many cases, however, the force of rolling friction is small and only static friction need be taken into account. The
external force of static friction does no work to dissipate energy in slowing a car, it does determine whether the wheels roll or slide. Using Newton’s laws and a = μg, where is a stopping acceleration, then stopping distance x = 2μg V 2 Where V is initial speed at the moment of application of brakes. In case of only rolling friction coefficient μ is static and in case of sliding, it is kinetic in nature. Q.12 In a particular situation, a car without ABS needs 17.5 m as minimum stopping distance in sliding conditions. Under identical conditions, what minimum distance same car with ABS would required if μS = 0.75 and μk = 0.45 for these surfaces.

(A) Braking system of car with ABS would be more heated up. (B) Braking system of car without ABS would be more heated up. (C) Braking system of both cars would be heated up by same amount. (D) Insufficient information to come to conclusion.
