Cycco has it right.
At 10MpH you're moving at ~15 feet per second. You optimally want two seconds warning plus stopping distance.
In urban situations where the light is primarily to be seen, I try to have the top of the beams center spot hit the license plates on the rear of a car at about 30 feet. That way they get enough to get their attention, but not be blinded unless they're on top of you. Good for getting plates, too.
