Example questions & answers

How much does your braking distance increase if you double your speed on a highway?

Illustration for question 1
  • A.two times.
  • B.three times.
  • C.four times.✓
  • D.five times.

Why: When you double your speed, your braking distance doesn't just double; it quadruples. This is because kinetic energy increases with the square of the speed.

Illustration for question 2
  • A.one vehicle length.✓
  • B.two vehicle lengths.
  • C.three vehicle lengths.
