On which type of map does distortion increase with distance from the poles?
what is the poles distance of space and matter.
Why does the number of mitochondria increase due to exercise?
work = force * distance
What energy or momentum of a vehicle can be offset by allwoing an increase in stopping distance?
kinetic
What effect do mass and distance have on the force of gravity?
Increase mass, increase gravity. Increase distance, decrease gravity (although you never reach zero). The formula for calculating force of gravity is: Fg=(G*m1*m2)/d^2 where Fg is force of gravity, G is the universal gravity constant, m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects, and d is the distance between the two objects
When driving in bad weather should you increase your following distance?
Yes, where it is windy and or the road is wet or your vision is limited by weather, you will take longer to stop your vehicle. To allow for this you should increase your distance from the vehicle ahead of you AND drive more slowly.
What can increase braking distance?
Poor brakes and bald tyres
When driving fifty miles per hours how far will it take you to stop?
On dry, level pavement, with decent tires? About 120 feet. Many things affect this calculation. With worn tires the distance can increase to 210 feet. Dirt roads require longer braking distances than pavement. Ice can increase the braking distance by hundreds of feet. Braking down a hill, depending upon the slope, can double the braking distance, whereas braking up hill can halve that distance. If you lock the tires, you typically increase the braking distance. You can reduce the distance by pumping the brakes. Anti-lock brakes allow the tires to slip, which decreases the braking distance. Extra weight in the vehicle increases the braking distance. Refer to the link below for calculating the braking distance at different speeds with different tire wear on dry, level pavement.
How can you increase braking distance?
By reducing the coefficient of friction between the brakes and the wheel OR between the road and the wheels.
Do anti-lock brakes reduce reduce braking distance?
Most experts in the field agree on this. ABS does reduce braking distance on dry or wet pavement if they are used properly. On gravel and snow ABS may increase braking distance slightly. But ABS's main safety feature is not to decrease stopping distance, but is to allow control of the vehicle during an emergency stop, because it prevents wheel lock-up and a skid.
What does braking distance mean?
Braking distance refers to the distance a vehicle will travel from the point when its brakes are fully applied to when it comes to a complete stop.

What is the distance you will travel after putting your foot on the brake?
Braking distance
What is braking and braking distances?
Braking in a moving vehicle is applying the brakes to slow or halt movement, usually by depressing a pedal. The braking distance is the distance between the time the brakes are applied and the time the vehicle comes to a complete stop.
How do antilock brakes or ABS increase the braking force while stopping and what μ value does this represent?
Antilock brakes do not increase the braking force.
Braking distance changes with the weather?
in rain, snow or ice your tires have much less traction, and therefore need more braking distance.
Does braking distance decrease as speed increase?
No. If it did, you'd need a 5-mile driveway at your house, but a jet fighter could land on a 2-foot runway.
How do you find braking distance when given velocity and reaction distance?
Decrease ..
