Speed measures

How fast something moves (distance covered vs time taken)

Typical unit for car speed

Kilometres per hour (km/h)

Speedometer function

Displays current speed of vehicle

Odometer function

Records total distance vehicle has travelled

Formula to find distance

D=S×TD = S \times T

Formula to find speed

S=DTS = \frac{D}{T}

Formula to find time

T=DST = \frac{D}{S}

Two components of stopping distance

Reaction distance + Braking distance

Average reaction time (fit, alert driver)

0.75 seconds

Stopping distance formula

d=5Vt18+V2170d = \frac{5Vt}{18} + \frac{V^2}{170}
