How many seconds does it take for a car to accelerate over 100 meters?
1 Answers
Generally, it takes about 8 seconds for an average car to cover 100 meters, while a supercar can do it in just 3 seconds. The top speed refers to the maximum speed a car can achieve on a well-paved road (concrete or asphalt) under windless conditions, where the driving resistance and driving force are balanced. Additional information: There are multiple factors affecting a car's top speed, such as the engine's power, maximum torque, RPM at maximum torque, transmission ratio, and driving resistance. The top speed is measured on a flat, windless road with zero acceleration, so gradient resistance and acceleration resistance are zero. Therefore, the main resistance factors affecting top speed are air resistance and rolling resistance.
