The larger the mass a car effects the velocity in that you require a stronger engine to make it accelerate at the same speed of a lighter car. Having a higher mass, it will take longer for it accelerate as well as for it to decelerate. Two cars that collide that have the same velocity and masses will stop, while if ones mass his higher it will cause greater damage to the smaller one.

What Factors affect the amount of inertia of body?
Velocity and mass
How mass affect the time?
Mass doesn't effect time, energy effects mass (proportional) and velocity effects time (not proportional).
Will two cars of different engine capacities maintain the same momentum if driving at the same speed?
Momentum is velocity times mass, so, in order for two cars to have the same momentum at the same velocity, they must have the same mass. Engine capacity has nothing do do with the equation.
What are two factors that affect friction force between two surfaces?
Mass And Velocity
What are the things that affect the motion of an object?
Velocity, mass, forces, acceleration, slope, etc.
What would be the effect on the orbital velocity of satellite if mass of satellite is double?
Its mass won't affect the orbital velocity.
How velocity affect momentum?
if velocity increases, so does momentum. and vice versa momentum = mass x velocity increasing mass or velocity or both will increase momentum
What affect momentum?
force and acceleration
Does increasing the mass or velocity have the most affect on an object's kinetic energy?
Generally, the velocity as it is squared, but I suppose if you had some titanic mass moving at a very slow velocity then it could be the mass.
Is it possible to have a constant mass and variable velocity?
Yes it happens all the time. Any force will change the velocity but will not affect the mass.
What Factors affect the amount of inertia of body?
Velocity and mass
How does velocity affect momentum?
if velocity increases, so does momentum. and vice versa momentum = mass x velocity increasing mass or velocity or both will increase momentum
What two factors affect how much an object moves?
By finding its mass and Velocity
How will an object size and mass affect its terminal velocity?
The terminal velocity of a falling object depends upon its aerodynamics (which is to say, its shape) rather than its size and mass.
How mass affect the time?
Mass doesn't effect time, energy effects mass (proportional) and velocity effects time (not proportional).
What are factors that affect an object's kinetic energy?
The factors affecting kinetic energy are mass and velocity.
If two identical cars are traveling at different velocities which car has the greater momentum?
Momentum is equal to the product of mass and velocity, so if the mass is equal, the one with greater velocity has greater momentum.
