A driver notices a hazard and applies the brakes to their car.
The car is travelling at 12 m/s
The driver’s reaction time is 0.180 s
i.Calculate the distance travelled during the driver’s reaction time.
ii.The driver then applies the brakes, moving a further 5m until completely stationary.
The hazard was 8 metres away. Did the car collide with the hazard?
iii.Suggest why the persons reaction time was slow
A driver is on the phone but notices a hazard and applies the brakes to their car.
The car is travelling at 30m/s
The driver’s reaction time is 0.260 s
i.Calculate the distance travelled during the driver’s reaction time.
ii.The driver then applies the brakes, moving a further 10m until completely stationary.
The hazard was 15 metres away. Did the car collide with the hazard?
iii.Suggest why the persons reaction time was slow

A driver has drunk 2 pints of beer and is driving home and notices a hazard and applies the brakes to their car.
The car is travelling at 45m/s
The driver’s reaction time is 0.425 s
i.Calculate the distance travelled during the driver’s reaction time.
ii.The driver then applies the brakes, moving a further 30m until completely stationary.
The hazard was 48 metres away. Did the car collide with the hazard?
iii.Suggest why the persons reaction time was slow
Which one of the following would also increase the braking distance of the car?
The thinking distance depends on the driver’s reaction time.
The table shows the reaction times of three people driving under different conditions.
The graph lines show how the thinking distance for the three drivers, A, B, and C, depends on how fast they are driving the car.
(i) Match each graph line to the correct driver by writing A, B, or Cin the box next to the correct line.
(2)
(ii) The information in the table cannot be used to tell if driver C’s reaction time is increased by being tired or by listening to music. Explain why.
Q2. A man is driving his car at a constant speed on a wet road.
He sees a fallen tree on the wet road and tries to stop quickly to prevent an accident.
Explain why the man may not be able to stop in time.
