The heavier the vehicle, the more work the brakes must do to stop it and the more heat they absorb. But the brakes, tires, springs and shock absorbers on heavy vehicles are designed to work best when the vehicle is fully loaded. Empty trucks require greater stopping distances, because an empty vehicle has less traction. It can bounce and lock up its wheels, giving much poorer braking. (This is not usually the case with buses.

Is composted of five wave forms that indicate the heart’s electrical activity P,Q,R,S,T
White raven [17]

The right answer is Electrocardiography (or Electrocardiogram).

In a typical plot, one can notice five characteristic waves. They are called P, Q, R, S and T. The illustration below shows what a normal electrocardiogram looks like:

* the P wave marks the depolarization during the contraction of the atria;

* the PR interval indicates the time required to transmit the electrical impulse of the sinus node of the atria to the ventricular muscles;

* the QRS complex marks depolarization and ventricular contraction;

* the QT interval corresponds to the global ventricular repolarization;

* T wave refers to the end of ventricular repolarization.
