Answer

The car would travel an additional $~~5.56~m$

Work Step by Step

Note that $200~km/h \approx 55.6~m/s$ We can find the additional distance the car travels if the reaction time increases by $100~ms$: $x = v~t$ $x = (55.6~m/s)(0.100~s)$ $x = 5.56~m$ The car would travel an additional $~~5.56~m$.
