In the event of an emergency a motorcycle can stop?
faster than a car
Can a motorcycle stop as soon as a car can?
Motorcycles can stop faster than a car
Can a motorcycle stop faster than a car?
it depends on the rider, essentially the physics would definitely allow a motorcycle to stop faster than a car because you can put all the weight on the front wheel while slowing down, you cant do that in a car, a motorcycle can do a wheelie because it has a higher power to weight ratio than a car, a motorcycle can stop faster because it has a higher center of gravity allowing more pressure to be put onto the ground by the front tire when braking. there is always some skill that changes the results, but generally speaking a good motorcycle can easily stop faster than a car.
When following a motorcycle you should?
Keep a greater than normal following distance since motorcycles can stop faster than a car
Can a car stop faster then a motorcycle?
Assuming the car and the bike are both traveling at the same speed and both have new brakes. The bike will stop faster than the car due to less momentum. Car is heavier, harder to get going fast, harder to stop fast.
How much distance between a car following a motorcycle?
Allow more following distance than you would behind another car - three to four seconds - when following a motorcycle to allow the rider enough time to maneuver or stop in an emergency. In dry conditions, motorcycles can stop more quickly than cars.
Is a train faster than a motorcycle?
Depends on how fast each is going.
How do you stop depletion of natural resources?
You stop harvesting them faster than they can grow.
Is a car faster than a motorcycle?
Depends on the degree of customization. Stock bikes are likely to be faster off the mark, but eventually a car can generate more downforce and is likely to be ultimately faster.
Can a motorcycle stop quicker than a car?
Yes, they have larger braking surface/weight of vehicle, than a car.
Which is faster a motorcycle or a plane?
what type of motorcycle is it? if it is ghost riders bike than definitely the motorcycle but if its just a normal motorcycle against a normal plane and you are still wondering than go to any elementary school and pull out any 1st grader and ask them and I guarantee they will give you the right answer because this is common sense.
When following a motorcycle why would you need to adjust your following distance?
Following distance should be increased (more distance) when behind a motorcycle because (1) the MC can stop faster than a car, and (2) it could go down for many reasons. Greater distance decreases the likelihood of running over the MC.
