A car and a motorcycle are moving with same momentum When equal retarding forces are applied the car - Science - Force and Laws of Motion

Question

A car and a motorcycle are moving with same momentum When equal
retarding forces are applied the car comes to a halt in t1 seconds
and the motorcycle in t2 seconds If mass of car is five times for
than mass of motorcycle then what is the relationship between t1 an
t2?

Dear Student ,

let the mass of the car be M, mass of the motorcycle be m let the retarding force be Fa=Fm,a'=FMM=5mmu=Mvt1=uFm,t2=vF/Mt1=MvF,t2=MvFt1=t2Regards

A car and a motorcycle are moving with same momentum . When equal retarding forces are applied the car comes to a halt in t1 seconds and the motorcycle in t2 seconds . If mass of car is five times for than mass of motorcycle then what is the relationship between t1 an t2?
