What else can I help you with?
Do large trucks take longer to stop than a car traveling at the same speed?
Yes. Because the truck is heavier.
When traveling downhill it takes longer to stop and more to change direction?
When traveling downhill, gravity is pulling you in the direction of the slope, making it harder to stop and change direction. The force of gravity can increase your speed and momentum, which requires more effort to counteract when braking or turning. It is important to anticipate these challenges and adjust your speed and technique accordingly when traveling downhill.
A vehicle with what will take longer to stop?
A vehicle with a greater mass will generally take longer to stop compared to a lighter vehicle, assuming both are traveling at the same speed and have similar braking systems. This is due to the increased inertia of the heavier vehicle, which requires more force to decelerate. Additionally, factors such as speed, road conditions, and tire grip also play a significant role in stopping distance.
How does speed effect stopping distance?
Speed directly affects stopping distance: the faster a vehicle is traveling, the longer it will take to come to a complete stop. This is due to the increased momentum and energy that needs to be dissipated through braking. In general, the higher the speed, the longer the stopping distance.
When traveling downhill it takes longer to stop?
YES!
How much farther stopping distance does a tractor-trailer truck traveling at 55 mph will typically need compared to an automobile traveling at the same speed?
h w many feet will it stop in
How does the speed an object is travling at affect its stopping disstance?
An object's stopping distance is proportional to its speed, mass, and the force applied to slow it down.A car is the best example of this:Speed: The faster the car is moving, the further it takes to stop (given a car of the same weight, and the same force is applied on the brakes)Mass: If the car was carrying a thousand pounds of bricks it would take longer to stop (given the same speed, and the same force applied on the brakes).Force: If you lightly press the brakes, you will take longer to stop than if you slam on them (given the same speed, and same car mass)
When a vehicle's speed triples how much longer will it take to stop?
When a vehicle's speed triples, the stopping distance increases by a factor of nine, assuming the same braking force is applied. This is because stopping distance is proportional to the square of the speed. Therefore, if the speed is tripled, the time it takes to stop will also increase, typically making it significantly longer than at the original speed.
Will it take longer for a train or a car traveling at 100 miles per hour to stop?
A train
If your traveling at 60 km drunk how long does it take to stop?
Much longer than if you were sober.
Does high speed increase stopping distance greatly?
Yes, high speed greatly increases stopping distance because the faster a vehicle is traveling, the longer it will take to come to a complete stop. At higher speeds, the vehicle has more kinetic energy that needs to be dissipated through braking, resulting in a longer stopping distance.
What makes a bowling ball harder to stop than a soccer ball when they are both traveling at the same speed?
The bowling ball is harder to stop because it has a greater mass, and therefore a greater momentum. But the answer is that the bowling ball has a greater mass.
