GCSE Physics - Stopping Distances #58

The video explains the concept of stopping distance, which is the sum of thinking distance and braking distance. Thinking distance is influenced by the driver's reaction time and vehicle speed, while braking distance is affected by the vehicle's speed, mass, brake condition, and road traction. The video highlights that braking distance increases exponentially with speed, emphasizing the importance of understanding these factors for vehicle safety.

Explain how braking distance is influenced by the speed and mass of a vehicle.

What is the relationship between speed and braking distance as illustrated in the video?
