The total stopping distance for a car travelling at 30 mph on a dry surface is about 75 feet. However, you may wish to note that in most countries, driving a car on the pavement is illegal.

The stopping distance of a car when it is going at 50 miles per hour?
5o miles per hour is 73.3 feet per second. The average stopping distance for the breaks at that speed is 128 feet. Now add to that the average reaction time for a driver at that speed which is 3/4 second so we add 55 feet gives us a total of 183 feet.
What is total distance and total time used to calculate?
Average speed.
How will the total distance traveled by a car in 2 hours be affected if the average speed of a car?
If the average speed of the car....Here is an unfinished question. The total distance is average speed times time. But since average speed is gotten by dividing total distance by the time, then it's a kind of circular question.
How do you get the average speed?
Total distance traveled / time
Stopping distance of a car traveling at 80mph?
The overall stopping distance would be around 122m (400ft) This is made up of a thinking distance of 24m (79ft) and an actual stopping distance of 98m (321ft). The thinking distance is around 3m for every 10mph of speed and the overall stopping distance is calculated as follows: 2x20 ft at 20mph 2.5x30 ft at 30mph 3x40 ft at 40mph 3.5x50 ft at 50mph 4x60 ft at 60mph 4.5x70 at 70mph 5x80 at 80mph = 400 ft james s
What is the Total stopping distance on dry pavement at the speed of 60 mph?
That depends on type of vehicle, vehicle condition, weight in or being towed by vehicle, tire condition and model, ABS equipped? all sorts of things.
As a vehicles speed increases it's stopping distance?
With increased speed, stopping distance increases.
What happens to the stopping distance when the car speed increases?
Stopping distance also increases.
How does speed affect stopping?
The faster you are going the longer the stopping distance is. The slower you are going the shorter the stopping distance is. E.G. Speed of a car Thinking distace Breaking distance Total stopping distance mph meters meters meters 30 9 14 23 40 12 24 36 50 15 38 53 70 21 75 96
As a vehicles speed increases what happens to stopping distance?
It increases faster than the speed increase ... approximately the square of the speed. So twice the speed results in 4 times the stopping distance.
What is the safest distance to follow a motorcycle?
3 seconds behind him, no matter the speed on dry pavement. More on wet pavement.
What is the Stopping distance at 20 mph?
using the formula, speed squared divided by 20 plus speed gives 40 feet approximate stopping distance at 20mph.
What would be the total stopping distance at a speed of 60 miles per hour?
The stopping distance, after decelerating from 60 mph to 0 mph, will depend on the efficiency of the brakes, the friction between the tyres and the road surface and the mass of the vehicle.The initial speed alone cannot give you an answer.
Is it twice the stopping distance for a car in freezing conditions?
No - the stopping distance depends on the speed of the vehicle - it' not simply a case of 'doubling-up'.
Does reducing speed increases a drivers stopping distance?
No it decreases it.
What happens to the stopping distance when the vehicle speed increases?
The distance needed to stop also increases.
Does traveling at a high speed require greater stopping distance?
Yes
