Because it you a slow reactionist, then it effects the time when you do react. For example, a car is coming at you and you react quickly. You reaction distance will be better that when you react a couple seconds later.

What factor does NOT affect The Total Stopping Distance of a Vehicle?

The color of the vehicle does not affect the total stopping distance. Factors that do affect stopping distance include speed, road conditions, driver reaction time, and vehicle condition.


What things affect your thinking distance?

Factors that can affect your thinking distance while driving include your reaction time, distractions, fatigue, alcohol or drug use, and road conditions. Thinking distance refers to the distance your vehicle travels from the moment you perceive a hazard to the moment you apply the brakes.


What factors can affect the ab.thinking distance of a vehicle during emergency braking?

Several factors can affect the thinking distance of a vehicle during emergency braking, including the driver's reaction time, speed of the vehicle, road conditions, visibility, and distractions.


What is the formula for thinking distance?

The formula for thinking distance is given by: the speed of the vehicle multiplied by the reaction time of the driver. Mathematically, it can be expressed as: Thinking Distance = Speed × Reaction Time.


How can one determine the stopping distance of a car?

The stopping distance of a car can be determined by considering the car's speed, reaction time of the driver, and the braking distance required to come to a complete stop. The stopping distance is the sum of the reaction distance (distance traveled during the driver's reaction time) and the braking distance (distance traveled while the brakes are applied). It can be calculated using the formula: Stopping distance Reaction distance Braking distance.

What is reaction distance?

reaction distance is the distance travelled from the time you see and analyze a threat, to the time you actually physically react.


How does distance and time affect the speed from object?

Distance and time do not, in general, affect the speed. Speed, however, can affect distance or time. Distance is directly proportional to speed, time is inversely proportional.


What is your vehicle reaction distance when travelling at 40 mph?

The vehicle's reaction distance depends on the driver's reaction time.

How do distance and time affect speed?

Because speed = distance/time


How would the thinking distance be greater than the braking distance with a car?

I am trying to understand your question and interpret it as meaning: How does the reaction time affect the breaking distance of a car at different speeds. The simple answer is that the reaction time "thinking distance" does not change, but the distance a car travels at higher speeds changes during that time does. For example: If you are too close to the car in front of you and they slam on their breaks, if you are both going fast enough, by the time you did your "thinking time" you would be crashing into their rear end.
