Reaction Time Given Overtaking Distance and Vehicle Speed Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Reaction Time = Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle/Vehicle Speed
t_reaction = d₁/V_speed
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Reaction Time - (Measured in Second) - Reaction Time is the time taken to complete a reaction to a certain extent.
Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle - (Measured in Meter) - Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle is the total distance it covers while passing another vehicle on the road.
Vehicle Speed - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Vehicle Speed refers to the rate at which a vehicle is traveling.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle: 25 Meter --> 25 Meter No Conversion Required
Vehicle Speed: 6.88 Meter per Second --> 6.88 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

t_reaction = d₁/V_speed --> 25/6.88

Evaluating ... ...

t_reaction = 3.63372093023256

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

3.63372093023256 Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

3.63372093023256 ≈ 3.633721 Second <-- Reaction Time

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Actual Overtaking Distance

Go Distance of Actual Overtaking = 2*Overtaking Space+Vehicle Speed*sqrt((4*Overtaking Space)/Overtaking Acceleration)

Overtaking Sight Distance given Distance Traveled

Go Overtaking Sight Distance = Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle+Distance of Actual Overtaking+Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle

Actual Overtaking Time given Overtaking Space and Acceleration

Go Actual Overtaking Time = sqrt((4*Overtaking Space)/Overtaking Acceleration)

Actual Overtaking Time given Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle

Go Actual Overtaking Time = Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle/Vehicle Speed

Vehicle Speed given Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle

Go Vehicle Speed = Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle/Actual Overtaking Time

Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle

Go Distance Traveled by On-Coming Vehicle = Vehicle Speed*Actual Overtaking Time

Acceleration given Actual Overtaking Time and Overtaking Space

Go Overtaking Acceleration = (4*Overtaking Space)/(Actual Overtaking Time^2)

Overtaking Space given Actual Overtaking Time and Acceleration

Go Overtaking Space = (Actual Overtaking Time^2*Overtaking Acceleration)/4

Reaction Time Given Overtaking Distance and Vehicle Speed

Go Reaction Time = Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle/Vehicle Speed

Vehicle Speed Given Overtaking Distance and Reaction Time

Go Vehicle Speed = Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle/Reaction Time

Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle

Go Distance Traveled by Overtaking Vehicle = Vehicle Speed*Reaction Time

Vehicle Speed given Overtaking Space

Go Vehicle Speed = (Overtaking Space-6)/0.7

Overtaking Space

Go Overtaking Space = 0.7*Vehicle Speed+6
