How does kinetic energy affect the stopping distance of a small vehicle compared to a large vehicle?

Stopping distance is dependent on the initial Kinetic energy (KE), the higher KE, the greater distance needed to stop. Because kinetic energy is equal to one half the total of mass times velocity squared (KE=1/2mv^2), if a large car with greater mass is traveling at the same speed as a small car with less mass, then the large car will have a greater initial KE and therefore requires greater distance to stop than the small car with less KE.

Ex nihilo is a latin phrase meaning “out of nothing.” it can be summarized as the creation made out of nothing. it is known that the creation story is religious, cultural, and traditional issue or story in which it is also known as cosmogony that is related to the origins of our world.hope this : )

Santiago's points of view. strength and opportunity
