The average car had a top speed of around 125 to 130 mph.
130 mph increased by 15% is: an increase of 19.5 mph to new speed of 149.5 mph
130 + 10% = 130 x (1 + (10/100)) = 143 miles per hour.
Yes, but any faster and you'll eventually hit the car in front of you?
Divide the distance travelled by the speed...
130 km per hour = 80.7783 mph
It would be 130 mph
55 mph. If the car stops (impact) people inside are still moving at 55 mph. They will hit the inside of the car- at 55 mph. That has the same effect as if you were standing still, and were hit by a car moving 55 mph. Messy. Wear your seatbelt.
130 mph is equal to approximately 209 kilometers per hour.
Put it this way... Would you rather get hit with a car going 70 MPH, or a car going 5 MPH?
Divide distance by time to find velocity: 130 ÷ 2.5 = 52 mph
130 knots = 149.6 mph
