    Answer:

     \boxed{\sf Distance \ travelled = 62.5 \ m}

    Given:

    Initial velocity (u) = 25 m/s

    Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (Rest)

    Time taken (t) = 5 seconds

    To Find:

    Distance travelled by car (s)

    Explanation:

    From equation of motion of object moving with uniform acceleration in straight line we have:

     \boxed{ \bold{s =  (\frac{v + u}{2} )t}}

    By substituting value of v, u & t in the equation we get:

     \sf \implies s = ( \frac{0 + 25}{2} ) \times 5 \\  \\  \sf \implies s =  \frac{25}{2}  \times 5 \\  \\  \sf \implies s = 12.5 \times 5 \\  \\  \sf \implies s = 62.5 \: m

     \therefore

    Distance travelled by car (s) = 62.5 m
