Question

If you are driving 85 miles per hour and hit the brakes, about how many 100-yard football field lengths do you travel before you come to a complete stop?

Answer 1

If you are driving at 85 miles per hour and hit the brakes, it would take you approximately 2.4 football field lengths (each 100 yards long) to come to a complete stop. This calculation assumes constant deceleration and does not take into account factors such as road conditions, vehicle type, or reaction time.
