Driving licence exam
You increase your speed from 30 km/h to 90 km/h. How is the breaking distance affected?
First calculate how many times higher the speed is:
90 / 30 = 3 times the speed
“The braking distance [...] increases quadratically with increasing speed.” (Driving Licence Book, 19th Edition, page 120)
- 32 = 3*3 = 9
