Yes, because they have the lowest momentum. This is the kinetic energy that must be removed (usually as heat) by the braking mechanism. The heavier a truck gets, the harder it is to stop, and this usually increases stopping distance.

What geographic regions is best suited for nuclear energy?
a suit case or an empty bottle or noams empty head
What does light travel through best empty space or matter?
Light travels fastest through empty space.
A 1000 kg car brakes with its maximum braking force of 4000n calculate the acceleration of the car when braking?
Assuming that braking force is the friction force; F=m*a 4000 = 1000*a a = 4 m/s^2
What is the meaning of empty?
of Empty
Does friction effect braking force?
Most certainly for without friction the braking system would fail no matter how much force was applied.
Is stab braking used on trucks with air brakes?
Only in an emergency.
Will empty trucks use the same amount of gas as heavily loaded trucks?
No, cause the heavily loaded trucks use more power than the empty trucks. I see you have the same homework assignment as me...
Can you apply stab braking on trucks with air brakes?
You would only do it in an emergency.
What has the author Sigmar Micke written?
Sigmar Micke has written: 'Vehicle optimized braking distribution and an electronically controlled braking system for trucks'
Are vacuum trucks used to empty septic systems?
Yes, vacuum trucks are used to empty septic systems. A company that cleans septic tanks most likely has vacuum trucks.
Pneumatic brake system?
Used in trucks and buses. This type of braking system of pneumatic and hydraulic hybrid vehicles.
What is automobiles ABS?
ABS is antilock braking system (not 'air' braking system, especially seeing as air brakes are typically only present in heavy duty and some medium duty trucks). It engages and releases the brakes automatically as you are braking in order to prevent brake lockup and skidding.
Who built the best trucks?
Today the best trucks have more features and are more comfortable and the best trucks were built by the Americans.
What are the functions of anti-lock braking system?
anti-skid braking system used on aircraft and on land vehicles, such as cars, motorcycles, trucks, and buses. ABS operates by preventing the wheels from locking up during braking, thereby maintaining tractive contact with the road surface.

Which is the best braking system in car?
ABS??
What are the best type of trucks for longboards?
