Assuming that braking force is the friction force;

F=m*a

4000 = 1000*a

a = 4 m/s^2

What affects braking distances?

The speed; the acceleration; the time it takes to react before the driver notices a danger (and applies the brakes). The acceleration is affected by the mass of the car; by the quality of the brakes; and by the condition of the road (for example, whether it's slippery).


What is gross trailer weight braked?

This is the maximum amount of weight a vehicle can tow, if what being towed has brakes. A towed vehicle with brakes (electronic brakes) responds to the same braking that the vehicle doing the towing has. If the vehicle being towed does not have brakes, the maximum towing capacity is much less.


What system are brakes from?

brakes are the braking system It could be a part of the control system It has a hydraulic system in the braking system


Grinding when braking?

Worn out brakes.


How do antilock brakes or ABS increase the braking force while stopping and what μ value does this represent?

Antilock brakes do not increase the braking force.


What is braking and braking distances?

Braking in a moving vehicle is applying the brakes to slow or halt movement, usually by depressing a pedal. The braking distance is the distance between the time the brakes are applied and the time the vehicle comes to a complete stop.


What is Antilock braking system?

Antiliock braking system is the mechanism which controlls the braking of brakes, If the pedals are fully pressed it will oppose the motion to protect your braking


A 1000 kg car moving at 10 m s brakes to a stop in 5 s the average braking force is n?

First calculate the acceleration: 10 m/s divided by 5 s = 2 meters / sec / sec (meters per second square).Now apply Newton's Second Law: Force = mass x acceleration.


How do you calculate braking torque?

To calculate brake torque, multiply force with the distance from the point of rotation. Force is equal to the torsional reaction caused by the brakes, and is also equal in magnitude to the torque exerted by the road.


Is stepping on the brakes of a moving train an example of acceleration?

Is stepping on the brakes of a car acceleration. That would be deceleration.


What is the difference between primary brakes and the secondary brakes?

Primary brakes are situated at the front wheels and provide about 70% of a vehicle's braking power. Your secondary brakes are located at the rear wheels and only provide about 30% of a vehicle's braking power.


What is the antilock braking system?

Antiliock braking system is the mechanism which controlls the braking of brakes, If the pedals are fully pressed it will oppose the motion to protect your braking
