175 feet.
The Oregon Drivers Handbook calculates it at closer to 240 feet.
(of course many factors can make it more or less distance.)
The typical BREAKING distance from 50mph is 38meters, but the overall stopping distance is 53meters (overall stopping distance is made up of thinking distance, which is 15meters in this case, + breaking distance)
Classic advice gives an estimation of 53.34m. How wet the conditions are, how worn your tyres are, what type of surface youre travelling on, how tired you are.. Too many factors to give a definiteive answer, but the UK highway code says 53m for a car on dry, firm surface with an alert driver. Be advised that these are the stopping distances for a 1970 ford anglia with drum brakes. The stopping power of a modern car is far better; my Volvo S60 will emergency stop from 50mph in less than 20 metres, but this excludes thinking time, which can vary hugely depending on the driver
There is too many factors to narrow the stopping distance down to a specific stopping distance. One of these factors is speed many people often are going to fast in icy condition causing horrible car pile-ups and many crashes. People need to be more cautious in icy conditions.
The faster you are going the longer the stopping distance is. The slower you are going the shorter the stopping distance is. E.G. Speed of a car Thinking distace Breaking distance Total stopping distance mph meters meters meters 30 9 14 23 40 12 24 36 50 15 38 53 70 21 75 96

Time = Distance/Speed = 14/50 = 0.28 hours = 16.8 minutes.

Stopping Distance = about 56.25 feet.
Depends entirely on the size of the vehicle. The average stopping distance for a vehicle is around 160 feet. That includes 51 feet you will travel during your reaction time. And 109 feet braking distance.
When you say, for example, 50mph/50 miles per hour in a car that's how fast you're going. It also saying you will go 50 miles in an hour. So in an hour if you do 50 miles and you stayed at the same speed you would have been going at 50mph.
