svare selve uheldet til, at bilen kørte ind i en fast genstand med ca. 33 km/t

Danish to English Law/Patents Law (general)
Regnes med en friktionsydelse på 0,40 over strækningen på de ca. 40 meter bilens tyngdepunkt flyttede sig efter uheldet, svare selve uheldet til, at bilen kørte ind i en fast genstand med ca. 33 km/t, hvilket ud fra bilens beskadigelser må vurderes for lavt.

From a report issued after a car accident.

Thanks

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

is equal to the car hitting a solid object at approx. 33 km/hour

´svarer til´ or ´corrersponding with´ simply means something like ´indicates´or ´the results show´.

On the basis of ... the centre of gravity of the car moved after the accident (impact), the results indicate that the car hit a solid object at approx. 33 km/hour, which from the damage to the car must be considered as low.

Something like that - rephrase as you think fit.

the accident itself was caused by the vehicle driving into a fixed object at approximately 33 km / h

Considering the friction power of 0,40 over the distance of approximately 40 meters that the center of gravity of the vehicle moved after the accident, ***the accident itself was caused by the vehicle driving into a fixed object at approximately 33 km / h*** which must be assessed as too low based on the damages to the vehicle

small correction (friction force / frictional force instead of "friction power" for "friktionsydelse"):

Considering the "friction force / frictional force" of 0,40 over the distance of approximately 40 meters that the center of gravity of the vehicle moved after the accident, ***the accident itself was caused by the vehicle driving into a fixed object at approximately 33 km / h*** which must be assessed as too low based on the damages to the vehicle

slight reformulation:

Considering the friction force / frictional force of 0,40 over the distance of approximately 40 meters that the center of gravity of the vehicle moved after the accident, ***the accident itself was caused by the vehicle being driven into a fixed object at approximately 33 km / h***, (speed) which in view of the damages to the vehicle must be assessed as too low (slow)

reformulated answer:

is the equivalent of the car being driven into a solid object at approximately 33 kph.,

There is more than one way to skin a car. The two other translations are equally valid, so it comes down to which one rolls of the tongue best.
