No and yes. Acceleration is the action of Speeding up while speed is Distance over time. Speed yes. Acceleration. No one would ever know

Two identical cars have forces applied to them Car A has a 1000 N force applied Car B has a 500 N force applied Which car will have more acceleration?

well if both the car are identical in mass the acceleration is directly proportional to force and inversely proportional to mass since mass is same hence car having force of 1000 N will have more acceleration than 500 N one.


Does a car have more gravity than earth?

No. The gravity of an object is directly proportional to its mass, meaning if you double the mass you double the gravity. Earth has more mass than a car does by an unimaginably large margin. Common sense also says no. Objects very readily fall toward Earth. They do not readily fall toward cars.


Explain why a car with a large mass might use more fuel than a car with a smaller mass?

Because, according Newton law F=ma. If F=ma, then A=F*L=E. (this is physics) Where F -force m - mass of car a - acceleration of car A - acceleration work L - trace E - energy And so, if mass of car is large, then spent more energy, and spent more fuel.


How does friction decrease the acceleration of a car?

friction decreases the acceleration of a car by creating a greater force which pushes against the acceleration force. the friction is a force, but more of it means that whatever is pushing against it ( acceleration in this case) is made smaller.


When a car rounds a curve it's acceleration is zero?

Actually, a car always accelerates on a curve. This is because acceleration, like the velocity it alters, is a vector that has both magnitude and direction. Since taking a curve involves a change of direction, there must be an acceleration to alter the direction; otherwise, the car can only continue straight.


Does the acceleration of a car affect its speed?

Yes, acceleration directly impacts the change in speed of a car. A higher acceleration will cause the car to increase its speed more rapidly, while a lower acceleration will result in a slower increase in speed.


How much time does it take for a car to accelerate from 3.44 ms to 20.9 ms?

The time it takes for a car to accelerate from 3.44 m/s to 20.9 m/s depends on the acceleration of the car. If the acceleration is constant, you can use the equation of motion: time = (final velocity - initial velocity) / acceleration. Without knowing the acceleration value, the time cannot be determined precisely.


How does Newtons 2 law explain why it is easier push a bicycle than to push a car with the same acceleration?

Essentially you're looking at F = ma acceleration, a = the same for both vehicles. The mass, m of a bike is much less than that of a car therefore; The required force to push a bike is much less than that required for a car. Therefore it's easier to push a bike.


Why is it that their is an acceleration when a car is moving?

There is only acceleration if the car's velocity changes. If it moves at a constant velocity, then there is no acceleration.


If car one has a greater inertia than car two then car one?

If car one has a greater inertia than car two, it means that car one is more resistant to changes in its state of motion. This greater inertia implies that car one will require more force to accelerate or decelerate compared to car two. Consequently, if both cars are subjected to the same force, car one will experience a smaller acceleration than car two due to its greater mass.


If you use the same force on a less massive object what happens to the acceleration?

Force equals mass times acceleration, so an alternative formula is acceleration equals force divided by mass. Therefore if the mass is decreased, the acceleration goes up. Thus a 100 HP engine on a motor cycle produces more acceleration than the same engine on a car.


Why does acceleration vary from car to car?

It varies with the amount of horsepower, and torque the engine is putting out. Also the weight of the car is a big factor. More horsepower and torque and less weight equals more acceleration and a faster 0-60 time. All at the expense of mileage.
