Dear student 
v = u -at 
u = vo = initial velocity 
Acceleration = √v
Time taken by particle to stop = t 
t = (v-v0)/a = -vo/√v
Good Luck

a= -v½
\frac{dv}{v^{1/2}}= -dt
\int_{v\circ }^{0}\frac{dv}{v^{1/2}}=-\int_{0}^{t}dt
[\frac{v^{1/2}}{1/2}] v\circ \rightarrow 0 = -[t - 0]      the integration is from v\circ to zero 
-\frac{v\circ ^{1/2}}{1/2}=-t
t=2v\circ ^{1/2}  This is the answer.
All I have done is formed an equation as given in the question, variables being a and v.
Then, I wrote a in terms of dv/dt and did further calculations to get t when velocity becomes zero
