While a vehicle with a mass of 2350 kg is moving at 120 km/h, suddenly braking It stops with an acceleration of -9.18 m/s2. There are two brake pads on each wheel of the vehicle. The friction coefficient between the brake pad and the brake disc is 0.3. During braking, assume 20 N/mm2 is the pressure on the brakke pad, find the area of the pad. Safety coefficient will be taken as 3
