It is a fact that a normal car on a normal flat road, assuming without traffic, accelerating from 70 to 80?
will do it in just under 3 seconds, while coasting out of gear down to 70 again will need about 11 seconds, therefore theoretically if the car was electrically powered, I would assume that could reach its destination by using a fourth of the power needed if systematically would repeatedly continue to reach 80 and then let it roll down to 70 up to reaching its destination, simply because it covered 75% of the distance, without using any battery power, but let us say that during the 25% stint when the car is accelerating the power drawn from the battery is double that needed if the car kept an average speed of 75, the numbers tells me then that I would have a power saving of 50% Can someone with authority out there tells me what is wrong with my thinking? Considering that I refuse to believe that the Electric motor would need 4 times the juice during acceleration that it would need to maintain a constant speed of 75
4 AnswersOther - Cars & Transportation1 decade agoIs it true that I will save fuel if I drive my car by intermittently applying power say to reach 80 MPH?
and then let it free wheel down to 70 MPH,and again accelerating to 80 MPH, and free wheel down again to 70 MPH, and so on indefinitely for a long distance. Considering that it will take barely 3 second accelerating from 70 to 80 MPH but a whooping 12 seconds to free wheel from 80 to 70 MPH, logic tells me that I should save a great amount of fuel, considering that say on a 100 miles stint I will be using my engine power for only 25 miles, while hypothetically could drive the remaining 75 miles with a dead engine free wheeling. Can anyone out there mathematically answer me please ? Please refrain from giving me personal opinions for i have a big bet on this, so i need facts, or it will cost me a big dinner for 6 in a fancy restaurant, and probably will take my entire pay check away.

Come direttore del loro autorevole quotidiano dopo le prove schiaccianti fornite da Vittorio Veltri su " Il Giornale " dell'abominazioni compiute da quell'uomo. peraltro campione del moralismo. Francamente io sento tanta vergogna per la mia chiesa, che si sta faccendo cadere cosi' in basso. Prima I prelati omosessuali e pedofoli che furoreggiarono in America, ed ora questo. Siamo veramente alla fine del mondo ?

Secondo me si, ma solo se gli stranieri di nuovo saranno a capo del reparto corse, anche se siamo bravissimi in tantissime cose, come organizzatori non valiamo niente, ma bravissimi a fare figuracce corsa dopo corsa, quest'anno peggio dell'anno scorso, ma perchè siamo cosi' tanto furbi e cosi' poco intelligenti ?

Considerando che Franceschini ha già il ciuffetto e l'arroganza del linguaggio di Hitler e gli basta solo farsi crescere i baffetti, mentre Fini prese di posizioni sono chiaramente del fu politicamente Bertinotti. Mi fanno ambedue sospettare di essere politicamente dei marziani. Ma voi che ne pensate ????
