Abstract

In this paper, braking of cars is analyzed: the analytic formulas for description of the said process and the diagrams for its illustration are provided, its mode of operation when the wheels of the car are not blocked is discussed upon, the most important factors that impact it are described herein. The key indicators of braking (such as the settled deceleration, the braking distance, etc.) are discussed upon and their values corrected in experimental way are provided.
