The speed; the acceleration; the time it takes to react before the driver notices a danger (and applies the brakes). The acceleration is affected by the mass of the car; by the quality of the brakes; and by the condition of the road (for example, whether it's slippery).
Control your steering and braking ability.
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.

The water gets into the brakes and when you stop there is less friction.
Slows reaction time and affects judgement of distances
Fog reduces visibility, especially dangerous to a driver. It also dampens road surfaces, lengthening braking distances.
Several factors can affect braking distance in a motor vehicle.Speed, the faster you are travelling means a longer braking distance.Drivers reaction time, the road surface, efficiency of the brakes, efficiency of the tyres, and any combination of these factors.
ABS helps a driver to prevent skidding during heavy braking. This will help to maintain steering control and achieve shorter braking distances ESC has the ABS functions but adds the ability to control skidding during cornering as well.
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.
Braking is used to bring the motor to stop quickly or instantly. Braking can be two way broadly. One is mechanical braking. Other method is electrical braking. One of the electrical braking is dynamic braking.
Absolutely, rain, ice, and snow alter the coefficient of friction between your tires and the road therefore in those situations one should break earlier
The Electronic Brake assist System (EBS) is a very efficient aid in emergency braking situations when the driver wants the vehicle to stop as quickly as possible. In these situations, most drivers apply the brake fast, but not with the maximum pressure, and this insufficient braking power leads to dangerously long braking distances. The system is triggered when the brake assist recognizes the fast and hard braking by the driver classified as typical 'emergency braking' and activates the maximum braking power immediately. Therefore even moderate pedal force leads to maximum deceleration. This can help avoid an accident or reduce its seriousness, due to decreased vehicle speed at the moment of collision.
