What else can I help you with?
Covering the brake pedal can cut reaction time by what percent?
50%
Placing your foot over the brake so that you can brake in less time is called?
Its called "covering"
Covering the brake is the same as riding the brake?
Somebody who "rides" the brake is constantly applying pressure to the brake pedal with their foot. People who tailgate ride their brake alot. "Covering" the brake is a form of defensive driving. For example, while proceeding through a traffic light, you would want to take your foot off of the gas pedal and place it just above the brake pedal (without applying pressure) to decrease your reaction time in case you need to brake suddenly.
When driving what do you call when you move your foot from the gas to over the brake?
Reaction time
What is a example of reaction time?
"Reaction time" is defined as the amount of time elapsed from a given stimulus to the response to it. Example: Your pencil falls. The amount of time for you to realize and catch your pencil is the reaction time.
What is the term used for seeing the danger to putting your foot on the brake pedal?
That's your reaction time.
What is called how far a car travels in the time it takes the driver to react to a situation and apply the brake?
It can be called Response Time or Reaction Time.
What is the typical reaction time from when you see a road occurrence to when you actually touch the brake?
1/10 seconds
When a driver moves his foot from the gas pedal to a position just over or lightly resting on the brake in anticipation of the need for a sudden stop is called what?
This maneuver is known as "covering the brake." It involves the driver positioning their foot over the brake pedal to be prepared for a quick stop, enhancing reaction time in emergency situations. This practice helps maintain control and improves safety by allowing for a more immediate response to changing traffic conditions.
What is an example of a reaction time?
"Reaction time" is defined as the amount of time elapsed from a given stimulus to the response to it. Example: Your pencil falls. The amount of time for you to realize and catch your pencil is the reaction time.
How do you calculate brake efficiency of a car?
estimates the distance a car travel at 100 km/h during your reaction time in braking
How much does a brake pad replacement cost.?
Brake pad replacements are cheap. Last time I paid for brake pads, it was $15 for two. It depends on your vehicle but if you have a regular Honda or Chevy then it shouldn't cost much.
