How does mass speed of vehicle affect the braking distance?
t bvv
What things can affect braking distance?
Things that affect braking distance consist of the following factors: * speed at which you're travelling * weight of the car * road conditions * braking efficiency * friction between the road surface and your tires Things that affect braking distance consist of the following factors: * speed at which you're travelling * weight of the car * road conditions * braking efficiency * friction between the road surface and your tires
Why factors affect your braking distance?
Hand-eye coordination, thinking distance, drunkenness, tiredness, if your on drugs, if your listening to music/being distracted. Thats just about it Also speed and road conditions affect braking distance
How do you find braking distance?
First, you drive your vehicle at top speed on the road. Then, you step full brake. Next, you get out of the vehicle and take a measuring tape to measure the black trail left by your vehicle's tyres. the length you had measured is the braking distance.
What determines the stopping distance?
Stopping distance as in braking distance: Braking distance refers to the distance a vehicle will travel from the point where the brakes are fully applied to when it comes to a complete stop. It is affected by the original speed of the vehicle, the type of brake system in use, the reaction time of the driver/rider and the cefficient of friction between the tires and the road surface.
What is the initial velocity of the car?
The speed of the vehicle before deceleration or braking.
How long will it take to stop a vehicle?
There are many factors involved and therefore no single answer. Some factors are reaction time, vehicle speed, vehicle weight, braking type, braking efficiency and vehicle type.
Why is the braking distance longer when the car is travelling at a higher speed?
Inertia.
How does distance and time affect the speed from object?
Distance and time do not, in general, affect the speed. Speed, however, can affect distance or time. Distance is directly proportional to speed, time is inversely proportional.
How do distance and time affect speed?
Because speed = distance/time
How to find distance traveled by a vehicle?
Speed = Distance / Time So Distance = Speed x Time
What is the formula for braking distance?
The minimum distance in which a vehicle can be brought to rest in an emergency from the moment that the driver notices danger ahead. Stopping distances of vehicles can be estimated by using the formula: stopping distance = thinking distance + braking distance The thinking distance is the time taken for the driver to react by applying the brakes of the vehicle. This is known as the reaction time, and is about 0.1-0.3 seconds. As a general rule the breaking distance becomes four times greater as the speed of the car is doubled.I found this info athttp://www.tiscali.co.uk/reference/encyclopaedia/hutchinson/m0030390.html
