The combined mass of bicycle and rider is 100 kg, they are travelling at the speed of 16 km/h on a level road. Diameter of rear wheel is 0.9m. How far will the bicycle travel after the application of brake? The pressure applied on the brake is 100 N and μ = 0.05.

Ft = μ.Rn = 0.05×100 = 5N Let x be the distance travelled by the bicycle before coming to rest. then Ft.x = mv2/2 x = 100×4.442/(2x 5) = 197.2m.
