When driving at 50mph you will need a stopping distant of how many feet?

That depends on road conditions, tire conditions, and other factors.
A good rule of thumb, however, it to follow no closer than 2 seconds behind the vehicle in front of you.

How many feet per second will a car travel at 50mph?
About 73.3 feet per second at 50 mph.
What would your stopping distance be if you are driving 30 miles per hour?
Most cars can stop from 60 mph in about 100 feet or so. If the relationship is linear then a car should stop from 30 mph in about 50 feet.
If you are going 25 miles an hour how many feet will it take you to stop?
Stopping Distance = about 56.25 feet.
How many seconds will it take for a car to stop if it is traveling at a speed of 40 miles per hour?
Stopping distances are measured in feet not in seconds. At 40 mph you're traveling 58.7 feet per second. The average driver reaction time is about 3/4 second which equates to 44 feet. After applying the brakes it will take approximately 82 feet to stop the vehicle. The total stopping distance for a car traveling 40 mph will be 126 feet when you include reaction time and actual stopping distance of the vehicle. If you divide 126' x 58.7' which is the distance traveled per second you get 2.14 seconds. This is assuming you're paying attention and have average reaction time while driving.
Driving At 25 MPH it will take you about feet to stop your car?
30 feet
What is the typical stopping distance for a car going 50mph?
175 feet. The Oregon Drivers Handbook calculates it at closer to 240 feet. (of course many factors can make it more or less distance.)
What is the thinking and stopping distance when travelling at 50mph in dry conditions?
50 Mph X 3.5 = 175 feet = 53.3 metressee http://www.hintsandthings.co.uk/garage/stopmph.htm for explanation and various equations
Under favorable circumstances including reaction time a motor vehicle with good brakes going 50 miles per hour can be stopped within how many feet?
The typical BREAKING distance from 50mph is 38meters, but the overall stopping distance is 53meters (overall stopping distance is made up of thinking distance, which is 15meters in this case, + breaking distance)
When you are driving at 50 mph you will need a stopping distance of?
Need car's weight and stopping power to compute.
How many feet per second will a car travel at 50mph?
About 73.3 feet per second at 50 mph.
At 50mph how far will you travel in the time it takes you to react to a road hazard?
55 feet
About how many feet will the average driver going 50mph travel from the moment he sees danger until he hits the brakes?
110 feet
What is the stopping time for 30 mph?
Stopping Distance = about 75 feet.
What is the stopping distance at 10 mph?
Stopping Distance = 15 feet
If you are traveling at 55 mph and need to come to a complete stop under perfect driving conditions appromiately how many feet will your car travel before stopping?
228ft
What would your stopping distance be if you are driving 30 miles per hour?
Most cars can stop from 60 mph in about 100 feet or so. If the relationship is linear then a car should stop from 30 mph in about 50 feet.
What is stopping distance for 45 mph?
Stopping Distance = about 146.25 feet.
