What is the thinking distance the braking distance and the overall stopping distance for a veichle travelling at 20mph?

At 20 mph, the average thinking distance is around 20 feet, while the braking distance is approximately 20 feet as well. Therefore, the overall stopping distance for a vehicle traveling at 20 mph would be around 40 feet.


What is the stopping distance for a car traveling 25 at mph?

4.6 meters or 15ft. is the estimated stoping distance of a vehicle travelling at 25 MPH. Thinking time and weather or not you are sober have not been taken into account.


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.


This is the distance your vehicle travels from the moment you first see a hazard to the moment you come to a full stop?

That distance is known as the total stopping distance, which consists of both the thinking distance (distance traveled while recognizing a hazard and reacting) and the braking distance (distance traveled from applying the brakes to coming to a complete stop). The total stopping distance can vary depending on factors such as speed, road conditions, and vehicle condition.

What is the stopping distance for a car travelling at 80 mph?

yes its 622 feet, but the state of the driver does not affect the stopping distance of a car. this is only affected by the mass of the car and the state the brake pads are in. so you can be drunk or sobre but the stopping distance will always be the same, its the thinking distance that is affected by the state of mind the driver is in. The stopping distance of a car most certainly IS affected by the state of the driver in question, due to braking systems not being specifically on or off, rather being sensitive to the pressure applied to them. If the driver in question brakes too hard, or too softly, then the stopping distance will change, obviously.


Stopping distance of a car traveling at 80mph?

The overall stopping distance would be around 122m (400ft) This is made up of a thinking distance of 24m (79ft) and an actual stopping distance of 98m (321ft). The thinking distance is around 3m for every 10mph of speed and the overall stopping distance is calculated as follows: 2x20 ft at 20mph 2.5x30 ft at 30mph 3x40 ft at 40mph 3.5x50 ft at 50mph 4x60 ft at 60mph 4.5x70 at 70mph 5x80 at 80mph = 400 ft james s


What is the thinking distance of a car traveling at 20mph?

It depends on the reaction time of the driver. This could be affected by his reaction speed or whether he is intoxicated. In any case the faster he is travelling the longer the thinking distance will be.


What is meant by the term thinking distance?

Thinking distance refers to the distance a vehicle travels from the moment a driver perceives a hazard until they physically react, such as by braking. It is influenced by factors like reaction time and speed. A longer thinking distance can increase the overall stopping distance of a vehicle.


What is the typical stopping distance for a car going 50MPH in meters?

Classic advice gives an estimation of 53.34m. How wet the conditions are, how worn your tyres are, what type of surface youre travelling on, how tired you are.. Too many factors to give a definiteive answer, but the UK highway code says 53m for a car on dry, firm surface with an alert driver. Be advised that these are the stopping distances for a 1970 ford anglia with drum brakes. The stopping power of a modern car is far better; my Volvo S60 will emergency stop from 50mph in less than 20 metres, but this excludes thinking time, which can vary hugely depending on the driver


What things affect your thinking distance?

Factors that can affect your thinking distance while driving include your reaction time, distractions, fatigue, alcohol or drug use, and road conditions. Thinking distance refers to the distance your vehicle travels from the moment you perceive a hazard to the moment you apply the brakes.


Do you say 'in my gap year' or 'on my gap year' Example 'I am thinking of travelling on my gap year' or 'I am thinking of travelling in my gap year'?

"in" is correct.
