That all depends upon the deceleration the car experiences.

The more braking there is, the greater the deceleration and the shorter the stopping time.

In the UK Highway Code, travelling at 15 mph under emergency braking it would take 15/22 ≈ 0.68 seconds for the thinking plus 15×3/44 = 1 1/44 ≈ 1.02 seconds for the actual stopping, a total of 1 31/44 ≈ 1.70 seconds (covering 15 + 11¼ = 26¼ ft).

Note that these figures have not been updated in years, but the braking of cars has improved, so you should be able to stop in less time.

If a ball takes 11 seconds to stop if dropped from 1 foot and 25 seconds from 2 feet how many seconds if dropped from 3 feet?

If we assume the time it takes for the ball to stop is directly proportional to the height it is dropped from, we can set up a proportion based on the given information. From the given data, we have the ratio of time to height as 11/1 = 25/2. Therefore, if we continue this ratio, the time it would take to stop if dropped from 3 feet would be 55 seconds.
