Covering the brake pedal can cut reaction time by what percent?
50%
Covering the brake is the same as riding the brake?
Somebody who "rides" the brake is constantly applying pressure to the brake pedal with their foot. People who tailgate ride their brake alot. "Covering" the brake is a form of defensive driving. For example, while proceeding through a traffic light, you would want to take your foot off of the gas pedal and place it just above the brake pedal (without applying pressure) to decrease your reaction time in case you need to brake suddenly.
Placing your foot over the brake so that you can brake in less time is called?
Its called "covering"
Is your reaction time faster than the speed of light?
No, it takes approximately three-quarters of a second for most humans to step on the brake from the time they recognize the need to do so. Some top atheletes can reduce the time to two-thirds of a second.
How do enzymes effect the time it takes for a reaction to occur?
enzymes reduce the time it takes for a reaction to occur. hope this helped(:
When driving what do you call when you move your foot from the gas to over the brake?
Reaction time
What effect does time have on enzyme reaction?
Enzymes reduce the amount of time required for a reaction. It does this by creating a suitable environment and physically aligning the substrates.
What is the term used for seeing the danger to putting your foot on the brake pedal?

Does alcohol a drivers reaction time?

It can be called Response Time or Reaction Time.
What is the typical reaction time from when you see a road occurrence to when you actually touch the brake?
1/10 seconds
How do you calculate brake efficiency of a car?
estimates the distance a car travel at 100 km/h during your reaction time in braking
