the brake pads against a rotor. Breaking harder increases the magnitude of the normal force‚ which results in the increase of the force of friction acting on the rotor. Given that the rotor is attached to the steering wheel‚ as the rotor reduces its speed so does the wheel. With disc brakes on cars‚ the brake can prevent the wheel from turning lot faster than the friction from the road can stop the car from moving. This can cause the wheels to lock‚ sending the vehicle into an uncontrollable skid. Wheel

Measuring the Speed of Sound and Air using a Pulse-Echo Technique Purpose To determine the speed of sound in air using the pulse-echo experiment procedure‚ and comparing it to the predicted speed of sound in air using the measured air temperature of the classroom. Hypothesis I believe that the speed of sound it the air will be close to that of the predicted value. According to our predicted value‚ we should expect the speed of sound in the air to be at a speed of approximately 346 m/s. Materials

------------------------------------------------- Speed Speed is defined as a measure of the distance an object travels in a given length of time. The average speed of an object can be determined from the equation below: Thus‚ if a car travels 100 meters in 5 seconds its average speed can be calculated as; Average speed = 100/5 = 20 meters per second Average speed is used to give the speed of an object over a given interval of time‚ if however the speed of an object is required for a particular moment then the instantaneous speed is used

I agree that the law should continue making and putting up speed limit signs. If they never put up speed limit signs our country would be crashed. There are very good reasons for them and most people disagree with these laws. Some people would be seriously injured if they did not exist. For example say you live on a really curvy road and you had to work late one night. The speed limit on you’re road was thirty-five miles per hour but‚ you were in a hurry to get home and your lights
