How can you tell if Nick is accelerating?______</p><p>9. One mile = 1.61 km, or 0.62 miles = 1 km</p><p> a. If I drive 10 miles, how many km have I driven?______</p><p> b. If I drive 5km, how many miles have I driven?______</p><p> c. If I drive 5 miles, how many km have I driven? How many meters?</p><p> c.i. ______</p><p> c.ii. ______Concept 4: Response time is the time it takes for a person to respond to a stimulus (something that happens). It is independent of the speed at which you are traveling. The older you are, the slower you tend to be at responding. Reaction time (response time) is affected by many things, including time of day, drugs and alcohol, amount of sleep, the presence of friends, cell phones, texting, etc. Be prepared to list at least three of these or similar distractions.</p><p>10. What is a typical reaction time?______</p><p>11. If I am going at 10m/sec and Leah runs out in front of my car, how far do I go before I can hit the</p><p> brakes?______</p><p>12. The braking distance goes up with the square of the velocity. (This is because the braking </p><p> distance increases as the kinetic energy increases)</p><p>13. Table of velocities and distances: Fill in the missing values</p><p>Speed (mph) Speed (f/s) Response time Braking distance Stopping Distance distance (f) (f) (f) 10 15 5 5 10 15 22.5 7.5 11.25 18 20 30 30 45 40 60 60 90</p><p>14. If I double my speed, how does that affect my reaction time?______</p><p>______</p><p>15. If I double my speed, how does that affect the distance I travel during my reaction time?</p><p>______</p><p>16. If I double my speed, how does that affect my braking distance, that is, the distance I travel </p><p> while I am braking?______</p><p>17. List three things that can affect my reaction time. ______</p><p>______</p><p>18. How does reaction time typically vary with age?</p><p>______</p><p>19. I am traveling at 45mph and a child steps in from of my car at a distance of 150 feet. Will I be </p><p> able to stop in time? ______</p><p>______20.
