Best Answer

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.

Does length and mass affect speed and distance?

I cannot say about "lenght", but distance is a measure of length so length affects distance. Speed is the rate of change of distance (over time) so length affects speed. Mass does not significantly affect speed or distance but, because they are affected by acceleration and acceleration is affected by mass (for a given force), then mass affects them. Also, mass affects space time and the presence or absence of mass changes the lines along which distances are measured and so distances and speed are affected.


Does friction affect stopping distance?

Yes, friction affects stopping distance. The greater the friction the lower the stopping distance; the lower the friction the greater the stopping distance.
