What is the distance a vehicle travels from the moment an event occurs until you see it and become aware of the danger.?

If you experience brake failure while driving you should turn off the engine and coast to a complete stop?

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


Does odometer in a car measure the average speed?

No, the odometer measures the distance traveled by a vehicle. The speedometer measures the speed at any given moment in time, but not the average speed.


How do you work out the moment?

To work out the moment of a force you times the force by the distance the force is from the pivot. So, basically: Moment = force x distance.


What can change when moment changes?

moment depends upon the force and the perpendicular distance between the force and the point where we are finding the moment. so when moment changes either the force will change or the perpendicular distance will change.


Distance times weight?

Moment


Why the perpendicular distance is uesd while calculating moment?

The perpendicular distance is used when calculating moment because the single sided force that causes the moment then causes perpendicular movement.


Since a moment is a force times a distance is it true to call a moment a force?

No, a moment is a force x a distance, it is the product of a force and a distance. You get the same moment with a force of say 2 Newtons at 0.5 meter as a force of 1 Newton at 1 meter, so it is obviously not a force alone, but the product of a force and a distance, and its units are Newton.meters in the SI system


What is the formula for braking distance?

The minimum distance in which a vehicle can be brought to rest in an emergency from the moment that the driver notices danger ahead. Stopping distances of vehicles can be estimated by using the formula: stopping distance = thinking distance + braking distance The thinking distance is the time taken for the driver to react by applying the brakes of the vehicle. This is known as the reaction time, and is about 0.1-0.3 seconds. As a general rule the breaking distance becomes four times greater as the speed of the car is doubled.I found this info athttp://www.tiscali.co.uk/reference/encyclopaedia/hutchinson/m0030390.html
