It seems like what you’re actually asking is how far will it be able to coast assuming a starting speed of 100 MPH.

That will be hugely dependent on tons of variables, not least of which being rolling resistance of the tires on the pavement (itself affected not just by the tires but also temperature, and moisture, and diameter of the tires, and roughness of the asphalt…) plus a car’s drivetrain is chock-a-block full of frictional losses throughout oodles of bearings and the constant rub of the brake pads on the rotors even when the pedal isn’t depressed, and so on and so forth. So I don’t think anyone will be able to accurately calculate that for any particular car. A field test is probably your best bet. If you’d like to not get arrested, start from 50 MPH instead and double your result. I conjecture that the deceleration from road friction and other losses will be near as makes to difference to linear.

A car rolling in neutral on a flat surface can coast pretty far. With a lifetime of driving experience behind me, my gut feeling says a quarter mile is definitely possible, and half a mile probably is as well. Coasting a full mile feels like a bit of a stretch.

I agree with your methodology and I’m further stoked to see that my assessment, which was largely a guess generated by inverting the relative speeds and masses of the body of the car and its wheels, arrived at a rather similar result. Neat.

(I used the weights from my Crosstrek, which is a bit heaver than a GT86 and mine at least has larger diameter wheels, but coincidentally uses an engine based around the same design. FA/FB gang, yo.)

Does the engine stay running and the throttle open to whatever degree it was before it was dropped? Because if not, the answer is practically nowhere. The mass of the wheels and tires is trivial compared to the rest of the mass of the car, and if the only energy you have in the system is the tires rotating without the power of the engine behind them I’d doubt it would be enough to move it more than a couple of feet. For instance my car weighs 3098 pounds and the wheels including tires are only something like 29 pounds each, so 119 pounds or so in total. They’re only 3.84% of the total weight of the car. (Yes, I’m deliberately conflating weight and mass here, because I can’t be arsed. Bite me.) You’d better slap it into neutral first as well, because otherwise without the engine running the freewheeling tires would have to fight the engine through the transmission and that’d rob you of basically all of the energy to begin with.

Otherwise, if you knew the mass and diameter of the wheels and the mass of the rest of the car, you could calculate this in a blithe sort of spherical-inelastic-cows sort of way. I think you’ll be disappointed by the results. A layman’s approximation without doing any fancy math on the matter would predict that you’d punt the car forwards in the above example for a single instant at the equivalent of about 3 miles per hour, after which it’d just be rolling under its own inertia.

However, you’d be quickly stymied in reality by the fact that dropping practically any car onto its wheels from 20 feet in the air would, at minimum, bottom out the suspension and possibly cause the tires to contact the insides of the wheel arches, stopping them dead. This is before we get into any other damage caused by such a drop. So you’d need a special suspensionless Solid Body Physics Car to test this with. I’m picturing something like an enormous pine box derby car.

How many other games from 2011 just got re-re-re-released on the Switch 2 for a full $60, though?

Poorly. According to a random Wikipedia query, commodity lithium ion is ~270 Wh per kilogram. So this is around 20% of that, according to the above.

“Excellent” may be in comparison to other byzantine specialty battery chemistries, but lithium ion remains resolutely enthroned.

It is a pune, or a play on words, relating to what a honing steel does.

It couldn’t possibly be. Don’t you trust a face like that?

As any night club bouncer or liquor store clerk knows, ZIP code 12345 actually resolves to Schenectady, New York.

And not to mention those goddamned Anglo-Saxons.

I carried my Schrade Switch-It every day in the little seam pocket of my carpenter’s jeans (as was the style at the time) and the only flak I ever caught for it was one day the principal spotting it and telling me he didn’t want to see me with my “pager” at school anymore.

I told him he had my scout’s honor that he would never see me with a pager so long as I lived. Yes, this sailed right over his head. I still didn’t get into trouble, though, which is surprising given the sheer variety of other stupid and highly spurious things that somehow got me in trouble in school.

Ah, here we are:

No, it’s specifically for Windows 2000. That should about tell you how useful it will be at this point, or really any point in the foreseeable future.

I will be 100 years old and trying to remember my own social security number, and all I’ll be able to come up with is this goddamn thing. I can already see it.

The most succinct summation of this I’ve seen is a turn of phrase once again lifted from Daniel Rutter:

You are not your brain. You are something that your brain does.

From what I’ve gathered from other Piefeed users, you can’t. It’s one of the reasons I’m on a Lemmy instance rather than Piefeed.
