Reaction Time

Describe what reaction time is and explain three examples of your reaction time in your own life?


Answer~  Reaction time is when you react to your actions in a quick instinct , one example of my own reaction is when i was 8 , i use to play alot of dodgeball but one day i was not paying attention and i reacted to slow and the ball hit me in the face. Another example is when i was in the car with my uncle , we were having a side conversation and we got deep into to it and we were not aware that there was a car infront of us so we hit the car and our reaction was so slow that we didnt know what had happened.
Last example was when i was 13 and i didnt want to go to the park so i went to the and i was staring at a bird that was really big and i was using a bike and i crashed into a tree and my reaction was fast so i jumped off the bike.
