The distance travelled by the vehicle from the moment a stimulus is perceived until a response is made is called...
A)braking distance.
B)stopping distance.
C)reaction distance.Correct
The reaction distance is the distance travelled by the vehicle during the reaction time. The greater the reaction time, the greater the distance covered. This distance also varies with speed — the higher the speed, the greater the reaction distance.
The braking distance is the distance a vehicle travels from the moment its driver begins to brake until it comes to a complete stop. This distance depends on the condition of the vehicle (tyres, brakes, suspension, etc.), the vehicle's speed, the total weight (occupants, car and load), the condition of the road surface (surface type, grip, etc.), and weather conditions (rain x2, snow or ice x10).
The stopping distance or technical stopping distance is the distance a vehicle travels from the moment the driver perceives an obstacle until the vehicle comes to a complete stop. The factors involved are those that affect both the reaction distance and the braking distance.
