Mass of scooter + scooterist = 150 kg
Initial velocity, u = 10 m/s
Final velocity, v = 5 m/s
Retardation = a
Distance travelled = s
Using third equation of motion,
v2 – u2 = 2as
as = -75/2
Work done, W = Fs
W = mas
W = -5625 J
Negative sign is used to show that force applied by the brakes is acting opposite direction of motion.
