A lot farther than you'd think. There is no simple answer to this, because of the following questions. Is the driver alert or using a mobile phone? Is the road wet, dusty, muddy, or icy? Is the road concrete or asphalt? What kind of tyres, are they inflated equally, are they inflated enough. Do the brakes work? Is the land flat? How many people are in the car? Is the fuel tank full?

Stopping Distance = about 146.25 feet.
It depends upon how long it travels for. Distance = speed * time So if the car travels at 60 mph for 2 hours, the distance is 60 mph * 2 hours = 120 miles But if the car travels at 60 mph for 30 minutes (0.5 hours), the distance is 60 mph * 0.5 hours = 30 miles.
Just divide the distance by the speed.
Distance = Rate * Time Conversion needed, so I will convert 5 seconds into hours. 5 s (1 hour/3600 s) = 0.001389 hours ---------------------------so, Distance = 70 mph * 0.001389 hours = 0.09723 miles ------------------------------lets put that into something meaningful, like feet 0.09723 miles (5280 ft/1 mi) = 513 feet -------------------------------is how far the car traveled in 5 seconds at 70 mph
55 mph (!)
