It depends on the reaction time of the driver. This could be affected by his reaction speed or whether he is intoxicated. In any case the faster he is travelling the longer the thinking distance will be.
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
Thinking my car needs a tuneup its jerking and lunging over speeds of 20mph
44feet
Not necessarily. The distance a car travels is determined by its speed and the time it spends traveling. If a car is traveling at a slower speed but for a longer period of time, it may not cover as much distance as a car traveling at a faster speed but for a shorter period of time. So, the longest time does not always correspond to the greatest distance traveled.
4.6 meters or 15ft. is the estimated stoping distance of a vehicle travelling at 25 MPH. Thinking time and weather or not you are sober have not been taken into account.
about 22 metres
Not necessarily. The speed at which the car is traveling also plays a significant role in determining the distance covered. A car traveling at a slower speed can travel for a longer time and cover less distance than a car traveling at a higher speed for a shorter amount of time.
I think that's because while it goes down the Car gains certain momentum and a pull due to gravity which makes its SPEED magnitude increase....

It is about 250 miles traveling in a car.
The stopping distance for a 3000kg car if 3000 N of force is applied when the car is traveling 10 ms is 50 meter. This is based on Newton's second law of force.
The thinking distance in a car is good and every 1 loves? I'm Will Rayner. I'm Will Rayner.
