An adult on a bicycle approaches a stop sign and applies the brakes to slow to a stop. If the bicycle and adult were originally traveling at 9.85 m/s and the brakes cause a deceleration of magnitude 1.01 m/sĀ², what distance is required for the person to stop the bicycle?

A child on a bicycle approaches a stop sign and applies the brakes to slow to a stop. If the bicycle and child were originally traveling at 7.18 m/s and the brakes cause a deceleration of magnitude 1.05 m/s2, how long (in seconds) will it take the child to stop?
