Hydraulic psi applied to the brake pads, convert the vehicles Kinetic energy into (thermal energy)heat. That is why race cars have brakes that can generate more heat(vented thick steel or carbon fiber) and are lighter(less kinetic energy).

What will the stopping distance be for a 3000kg car if 3000 N of force are applied when the car is traveling 10 ms?

The stopping distance for a 3000kg car if 3000 N of force is applied when the car is traveling 10 ms is 50 meter. This is based on Newton's second law of force.


What will the stopping distance be for a 3000kg car if -3 000 N of force are applied when the car is traveling 10 ms?

50m

Can friction is a force that can make easier?

Friction definitely is a force that can make things easier. Stopping a car for example is made easier by friction.

What will the stopping distance be for a 1,000-kg car if -2,000 N of force are applied when the car is traveling 10 m/s?

25 m


What happens to the stopping distance as a car moves faster?

The stopping distance of a car increases.


How does the speed an object is travling at affect its stopping disstance?

An object's stopping distance is proportional to its speed, mass, and the force applied to slow it down.A car is the best example of this:Speed: The faster the car is moving, the further it takes to stop (given a car of the same weight, and the same force is applied on the brakes)Mass: If the car was carrying a thousand pounds of bricks it would take longer to stop (given the same speed, and the same force applied on the brakes).Force: If you lightly press the brakes, you will take longer to stop than if you slam on them (given the same speed, and same car mass)


How much distance is covered when stopping from 100 kilometres per hour?

It depends on the size and make of your car and also the type of brakes you used in your car.


What factors determine the stopping distance?

Speed, reaction time, car's mass, tires, mechanical condition & type of brakes.
