Exploring Car Stopping Distance

Introduction

This presentation explores the relationship between car speed and stopping distance using R and Plotly.

Interactive Plot

library(plotly)

data(cars)

plot_ly(
  data = cars,
  x = ~speed,
  y = ~dist,
  type = "scatter",
  mode = "markers",
  marker = list(
    color = "blue",
    size = 10
  )
) %>%
  layout(
    title = "Car Speed vs. Stopping Distance",
    xaxis = list(title = "Speed (mph)"),
    yaxis = list(title = "Stopping Distance (feet)")
  )

Conclusion

The graph shows that stopping distance generally increases with car speed.

This project demonstrates how R Markdown and Plotly can create interactive data visualizations.
