Practice question

What is the effect of increasing speed on stopping distance in the ACT?

  1. Stopping distance increases proportionally with speed
  2. Stopping distance increases exponentially — doubling speed more than doubles the stopping distance
  3. Stopping distance is unaffected by speed if the brakes are in good condition
  4. Stopping distance decreases at higher speeds due to aerodynamics

Answer: B — Stopping distance increases exponentially — doubling speed more than doubles the stopping distance
