Solution:
The stopping distance is proportional to the square of the speed:
\[
\frac{s_2}{s_1} = \left( \frac{v_2}{v_1} \right)^2
\]
Substituting the values:
\[
\frac{s_2}{6} = \left( \frac{100}{50} \right)^2 = 2^2 = 4
\]
\[
s_2 = 6 \times 4 = 24 \, \text{m}
\]
Thus, the minimum stopping distance at 100 km/h is 24 meters.
