hand held scanner accessing the vehicle speed sensor data stream
It's used for the speedometer and the cars ECU (computer). It tells both how fast your going.
sends an electrical signal to the transmission to tell it to shift gears. It also sends that info to the cars computer.
Cars have gears to help control the speed and power of the vehicle. Gears allow the engine to operate efficiently by matching the engine's speed with the speed of the wheels. This helps the car accelerate, maintain speed, and climb hills more effectively.
cars and vehicles Multi-speed bicycles
Whatever speed they're allowed by the driver of the vehicle.
It could be due to aerodynamic drag/ not enough HP, gearing... but most likely it is a limiter set in the engine computer. Some vehicle have speed limiters due to the speed rating of the tires they come with, for safety. Most cars are limited, the exception is high performance cars.
like any vehicle it is shapped to decrease drap and increase speed
Depends on the fuel mileage of the vehicle and the speed at which it is driven.
The most common use of a governor is to limit the top speed of the vehicle...most newer cars have them and the speed is set by the manufacturer...they can be changed with a flash programmer for that specific vehicle.
A cars speedometer measures speed. A speedometer is a gauge that displays the speed of a vehicle so the driver will know how fast the vehicle is moving.
On Indy Cars, there is a paddle located on the left side of the steering wheel known as the PIT LANE SPEED LIMITER PADDLE. This adjusts and limits the vehicle to the designated pit lane speed.
the government require that all new cars (and all cars, after 5 years) be equipped with speed governors that use GPS
