What does wet road conditions affect on a car?
Stopping distance
How much is the stopping distance for 70 miles per hour?
It depends on the road conditions, as well the state of your brakes.
What happens when a car stopping distance when a road gets wet?
Less traction on a wet road so the stopping distance increases.
The factors that affect the stopping distance of a car?
condition of car condition of driver weather road surface by jibran ali
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
What happens to the stopping distance when the road gets wet?
you skid
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
What is the stopping distance at 55 mph?
That depends on 4 factors - size of vehicle you're driving, what you're towing/hauling, the road conditions, and if the vehicle is equipped with ABS or not.
Why is the stopping distance slower on a dry road?
frition force act on it
How does friction affect the motion of a vehicle in the context of tire surface road conditions including skidding braking force braking distance thinking distance and stopping distance?
Tyre surface: If the tyre is new, it will have surface with depressions which will offer more friction compared to old tyre whose surface-depressions are worn out and it is more flat, so it offers less friction. Therefore, new tyre will have less stopping distance, as force of friction is more. Thinking distance is affected neither by friction between tyre and road, nor by friction between brake and tyre. If road has a wet surface, it has less friction so the vehicle will skid farther, and vice versa. The braking force, i.e, friction between tyre and brake is unaffected by road condition or tyre surface. Hence the distance the vehicle travels WHILE retarding due to "braking force", is not same as stopping distance, because even when the wheels are stopped rotating due to braking force, the car will skid a little distance- this total distance is the stopping distance.
What is the overall stopping distance at 40mph?
If I gave you an answer I'd be lying. Take into consideration road conditions, tire tread and condition, brake pad/shoe condition etc etc.
What is the required distance when driving behind another car?
That will depend on the weather, road conditions, the loading in YOUR car and the speed you are driving at. At all times you must make sure that your distance behind the car inform is more than your safe stopping distance.
