The more the vehicle weighs, the harder the brakes must work to stop it and the more distance it will need to stop the vehicle.
However, large trucks can brake easier with more weight because weight adds friction which helps to stop the vehicle.
This still doesn't fully compensate for the total stopping distance needed for a large vehicle.
Basicly what he means is the heavier the vehicle the more friction it can create(slow it down) but it can add to the forward force iswell
Or more precisely, the force of the vehicle going forward because of it's mass is still greater than the force of friction helping the vehicle slow down.
What else can I help you with?
How does friction on tires effect the stopping distance of a car?
The more friction, the quicker the vehicle will stop, meaning less stopping distance.
What happens to the stopping distance as a car moves faster?
The stopping distance of a car increases.
Friction affects stopping distance of a toy car rolling down?
Friction plays a key role in determining the stopping distance of a toy car rolling down a surface. The greater the friction between the wheels of the car and the surface, the shorter the stopping distance will be. Conversely, if there is less friction, the stopping distance will be longer. Other factors such as the speed of the toy car, the weight of the car, and the surface roughness will also influence the stopping distance.
What is the overall stopping distance of a car travelling at 100km an hour?
you're a tool. dependant upon inertia, stopping surface, braking potential, weight. lots of factors. a car may have ABS or not. this affects the final distance
What happens to the stopping distance when the car speed increases?
Stopping distance also increases.
What is the element of stopping distance?
Total stopping distance is the thinking distance (The distance it takes for your brain to process the event and decide to stop the car) and the stopping distance (The distance it takes to stop the car once deceleration has begun) added together.
What is the relationship between a car's mass and its stopping distance?
The greater the mass of the car and its occupants the longer the stopping distance that is required for the vehicle. Stopping distance is calculated by taking into account car mass and reaction time in braking
What is the element of total stopping distance?
Total stopping distance is the thinking distance (The distance it takes for your brain to process the event and decide to stop the car) and the stopping distance (The distance it takes to stop the car once deceleration has begun) added together.
How can one determine the stopping distance of a car?
The stopping distance of a car can be determined by considering the car's speed, reaction time of the driver, and the braking distance required to come to a complete stop. The stopping distance is the sum of the reaction distance (distance traveled during the driver's reaction time) and the braking distance (distance traveled while the brakes are applied). It can be calculated using the formula: Stopping distance Reaction distance Braking distance.
What will the stopping distance be for a -2000 N of force are applied when the car is traveling 20 ms?
To calculate the stopping distance, we need more information such as the mass of the car and the acceleration. The force alone is not sufficient to determine the stopping distance.
What Two factors that affect the distance taken for a toy car to stop?
Air resistance against the car as it travels and the friction of the wheels against the ground slows it down and so reduces the toy car's potential travelling distance The weight of the car\on the car, the slope of the ramp and the material the car lands on or on the ramp
What will the stopping distance be for a 3000kg car if -3000 N of force are applied when the car is traveling 10ms?
The stopping distance can be calculated using the equation: stopping distance = (initial velocity^2) / (2 * deceleration). The deceleration can be calculated using the formula: deceleration = force / mass. Plugging in the values and calculating will give you the stopping distance.
