hard · Enhanced ACT science
A car's stopping distance was measured on a dry road at several speeds:
| Speed (km/h) | Stopping distance (m) |
| :--- | :--- |
| 20 | 5 |
| 40 | 20 |
| 60 | 45 |
| 80 | 80 |
Which relationship between speed and stopping distance does the data best show?
- Distance is directly proportional to speed (doubles when speed doubles).
- Distance grows roughly with the square of the speed (quadruples when speed doubles).
- Distance is constant regardless of speed.
- Distance decreases as speed increases.
