Is the stopping distance the same as the following distance?
No, they have different meanings.Following distance is the safe distance to follow behind a moving motor vehicle.Stopping distance is the combination of the drivers reaction time to apply the brakes and the time the vehicle takes to come to a halt.
Total stopping distance equals the time in inches it takes you to hit the brakes plus how many yards it takes to actually stop the car?
true
Examples problem in motion along straight line?
A problem in motion along a straight line is a problem that takes place in one dimension. An example problem is an object on a straight conveyor belt.
Which of the following troubleshooting steps usually takes place after you have talked to the user experiencing the problem?
Gathering information on the issue
What is the definition of algorithm in math?
When used in math is usually means the set o steps it takes to answer the problem or question. :)
Why is it unwise to suddenly apply the brakes of a car on a wet or icy pavement?
Suddenly applying the brakes on a wet or icy road could cause the wheels to lock. With the wheels locked up it takes longer to stop. Also, locked wheels could lead to a loss of control of the vehicle.
What is wrong if the rear brakes do not seem to be catching on a 1998 Nissan 240SX after having the brakes changed?
Usually after brakes are changed, it takes time for it to break in. So the brakes wont be as "grippy" as before. If that does not solve your problem, then it might be because of air bubbles in the brake lines. Try bleeding the system. If that doesn't solve your problem, then it could be a problem with your calipers. You can fix it, but most people just get another one from the junk yard. Takes less time and it's cheap too. I was going to say it could be the master cylinder, but it wouldn't be. Because 240sx has a diagonal braking system. Which means if one cylinder fails then you would still have brakes in front right and rear left OR vice versa.
What does stopping distances mean?
stopping distance is the distance it takes for a vehicle to come to a full stop from the moment you apply the brakes
Can brake failure happen when your brakes are wet?
No, you will not have brake failure. However when the brakes are wet and you apply them, it takes a couple of seconds for the water on the pads and rotor to evaporate. During that time you do not have good braking. But the water itself will quickly dissipate due to the heat and friction of the brakes. Water does not damage a brake system.
Is the critical factor in the distance it takes to stop your vehicle?
Yes, the critical factor in the distance it takes to stop your vehicle is your reaction time and the braking distance. Reaction time is the time it takes for you to perceive a hazard and apply the brakes, while braking distance is the distance your vehicle travels after applying the brakes until it comes to a complete stop. Both factors contribute to the overall stopping distance of your vehicle.
After replacing the master cylinder on your 1996 Ford Aerostar the warning lights on the dash stay lit what is the problem?
Your brakes need bleeding. And if you have antilock brakes, you should take it to a shop to bleed them. It takes special tools to bleed antilock brakes. If you have regular brakes you can bleed them yourself. Could go into further detail but would take too long to explain. Refer to a repair manual. Note: bleeding antilock brakes without first disconnecting the sensor will damage the sensor and the antilock function will no longer work (learned the hard way, unfortunately).
Is an element of total stopping distance?
Yes, reaction time is a component of total stopping distance. It represents the time it takes for a driver to perceive a hazard and apply the brakes to begin stopping the vehicle.
Why are my new brakes and rotors sqealing on my 92 Ford Tempo?
This is a common problem with disk brakes. Give it some mileage and 9 times out of ten it goes away. If not you could trying lubing the rear of the pads and the slide pins so make sure that they are releasing easier. This usually takes care of it. There is a grease that is used for just this thing available at any auto store. Good luck.
How do you change the brakes on a Toyota Sequoia?

What could be the problem on a 1999 buick century when it takes 15 minutes to warm up?
Thermostat is stuck open.
Is it possible to stop a fast moving automobile instantaneously give reason?
No, it is not possible to stop a fast-moving automobile instantaneously. This is because it takes time for the brakes to apply force and for the vehicle's momentum to be reduced to zero. Additionally, the sudden stop could lead to skidding, loss of control, or damage to the vehicle.
At 20 mph the average driver will travel how many feet before they hit the brakes?
At 20 mph, the average driver will travel approximately 88 feet before hitting the brakes. This accounts for the time it takes for the driver to perceive the need to stop and physically apply the brakes.
