Yes, using either the 2-second rule or the 3-second rule means that as your driving speed increases, you leave more distance between you and the car ahead of you.

Is speed that does not vary is called average speed?

No, speed can vary and one can still calculate the average speed of an entire trip. Average speed is equal to the change in distance divided by the change in time.


Why might the distance traveled in a given second vary on a graph showing speed?

because the speed is constant..


How many Hours is 56 miles by airplane?

Aeroplanes vary greatly in their speed. Furthermore, over a distance of 56 miles, an aeroplane may well not reach its cruising altitude and speed.Aeroplanes vary greatly in their speed.

What is a vehicle's reaction distance?

Reaction distance is the distance a vehicle will travel before the operator can react to what is observed. This distance will vary depending on the speed of the vehicle. The reaction distance is actually the reaction time of the operator.


What is the distance in miles between Afghanistan and Canada?

The distance between Afghanistan and Canada is 6509.1 Miles. This is the distance from Kabul (Afghanistan) to Ottawa (Canada). The distance may vary depending air craft speed and places.


What is the average speed 3hour's 45min's to travel 180 miles?

speed = distance / time. In travelling over a distance, the speed may vary. The average speed is the constant speed that covers the given distance in the given time. First convert the time to hours and fractions of hours: 45min = 45/60 hrs = 0.75hrs 3hr 45min = 3.75hrs Now divide: average speed = 180 / 3.75 = 48 mph.


How many hours is 156 miles?

Hours is a measure of time, miles is a measure of distance. You can't directly convert them. If you travel at a specific speed, you can use the formula distance = speed x time. Solving for time, you get time = distance / speed. - Of course, the results will vary, depending on whether you go in a car, in an airplane, or by foot.


What is distance relating to math?

The question is too vague for a proper answer. Distance can crop up in the context of speed, acceleration, kinetics, etc. In each case the definition and formula may vary. There is also the concept of distance between two points in a metric space and the measure of distance will depend on the metric defined on the space. The Euclidean (or Pythagorean) metric and the Minkovsky (or taxicab) metric are two of the more common metrics but there are loads more.


Sounds can vary in volume and what?

Sound waves can vary in amplitude (volume), fequency (pitch), and wave length. Wave length is a resulting factor of frequency as the speed is usually constant. approx 350m/s. Speed = wavelength x frequency (speed = distance / time, frequency = 1/time)


What is average speed and how do you calculate it?

to find average speed divide the distance traveled by the time it took to travel that distance so for example: what is the average speed of a runner that traveled 10 miles in 2 hours? 10(distance)/2(time) = 5(speed), so the answer would be 5 miles per hour although they may not have been traveling 5 miles per hour the whole time the average speed they were traveling is 5 miles per hour. also you can find the distance by multiplying the time by the speed. and to find time, multiply speed by distance. (dont forget units will vary for answers) hope this helped :)


Does an internet connection speed vary by neighborhood?

No. But the fastest possible speed can vary by Area!
