An automobile moves on a road with a speed of $54 \,km h^{-1}.$ The radius of its wheels is $0.45\, m$ and the moment of inertia of the wheel about its axis of rotation is $3\, kg m^2$. If the vehicle is brought to rest in $15\, s,$ the magnitude of average torque transmitted by its brakes to the wheel is .......... $kg \,m^2\, s^{-2}$.

  • A
    $2.86$
  • B
    $6.66$
  • C
    $8.58$
  • D
    $10.86$
