For a train engine moving with a speed of $20 \; m/s$,the driver must apply brakes at a distance of $500 \; m$ before the station for the train to come to rest at the station. If the brakes were applied at half of this distance,the train engine would cross the station with a speed of $\sqrt{x} \; m/s$. The value of $x$ is $..............$ (Assuming the same retardation is produced by the brakes).
- A$100$
- B$101$
- C$520$
- D$200$
