Warwick Gardens at night
Tony Bryer writes:
Being a old guy who passed his test in imperial days the formula for stopping distance was m(1+m/20) feet: the first term is basically the distance travelled whilst your brain is getting your foot to press the brake, the second [that travelled in] the actual time needed to stop. However, that is an oversimplification. The distance needed to stop under maximum braking force (or any particular force) varies as the *square* of the speed. -- Mark Brader | "Forgive me if I misunderstood myself, but Toronto | I don't think I was arguing in favour of that..." | -- Geoff Butler |
