No. If it did, you'd need a 5-mile driveway at your house,

but a jet fighter could land on a 2-foot runway.

How do you calculate distance and revolutions?

You must buy a bicycle computer and attach it to your bike. They can calculate various things- speed, distance, RPM, time, tempertature, altitude, speed increase or decrease


How are acceleration and speed alike?

They are not alike but they are related. A positive acceleration means an increase in velocity (speed). A negative acceleration means a decrease in velocity. Velocity (speed) has the dimensions of distance / time. Acceleration has the dimensions of distance/time2 or velocity/time.


Why is retardation called negative acceleration?

retardation is nothing but the decrease in speed. so if the increase in speed can be taken as positive then for sure decrease in speed can be taken as negative acceleration.


What is the difference between direct proportion and indirect proportion?

Two variables are said to be in direct proportion if, when you increase one by some multiple, the other also increases by that same multiple. Alternatively, both decrease by the same proportion. Two variables are in indirect (or inverse) proportion if an increase in one of them is associated with a decrease in the other, and conversely. The proportional change in both is the same. For example, if I change the speed at which I am driving, then the distance that I can cover in a fixed amount of time will change in the same proportion. Double my speed then double the distance, quadruple speed and quadruple distance, halve the speed and halve the distance. So speed and distance are directly proportional. Now think of speed and the time taken to do a fixed distance. Double my speed and halve the time. Halve the speed then double the time. So time taken is inversely proportional to speed.


How would decreasing the time it takes you to run a certain distance of your speed?

Decreasing the time, for the same distance, means you increase your speed. Remember that speed is distance / time.

Why is the braking distance longer when the car is travelling at a higher speed?

Inertia.


How would decreasing the time it takes you to run a a certain distance affect your speed?

It would increase your speed. Speed = distance / time so if you decrease the time whilst keeping the distance the same, distance/time increases.

What things can affect braking distance?

Things that affect braking distance consist of the following factors: * speed at which you're travelling * weight of the car * road conditions * braking efficiency * friction between the road surface and your tires Things that affect braking distance consist of the following factors: * speed at which you're travelling * weight of the car * road conditions * braking efficiency * friction between the road surface and your tires


Can acceleration change with out increase or decrease speed?

yes the 3 types of acceleration are increased speed decrease speed or change in direction.


How does the speed of atoms in a substance related to its temperature?

If there is an increase in the temperature of a substance, that indicates the increase in vibration and speed of the particles. If there is a decrease in the temperature of a substance, that indicates the decrease in vibration and speed of the particles.


What is bernoulli's princeiple?

If you mean Bernoulli's principle, it's the statement that an increase in the speed of a fluid produces a decrease in pressure and a decrease in the speed produces an increase in pressure.


If a graph curves upward how does that affect the speed of an object?

This entirely depends on what the graph is charting, but generally, an upward curve reflects an increase in some quantity like distance or acceleration and is a positive correlation with speed increase. However, it could be an increase of resistance or friction, which would decrease speed.


How does incline affect speed?

Incline affects speed by causing it to increase or decrease. For example, if something is traveling up the incline, its speed will decrease. If something is traveling down the incline, its speed will generally increase.
