What is the apparatus fixed to the wheels of a car to lesson the effects of rough roads?
suspension or steering wheel
Why do some bikes have broad wheels?
To get better traction on soft surfaces.
Why do tanks have wheels?
Tanks have interior wheels that drive their treads, which revolve around the outside of the entire set of hub wheels. Light tanks may have road wheels that are fitted underneath, to avoid damaging the surfaces of roadways and bridges.
What are the sources of friction?
Friction occurs because of the interactions between two surfaces that are in contact. When either of the surfaces experiences motion, its friction that resists the same. Wheels moving on a surface will produce friction.
Do sailboats have steering wheels?
In smaller vessels a rudder is used as a steering device. In larger vessels the wheel or helm is the apparatus by which the vessel is steered.
What is a dirtboard?
A dirtboard is a long skateboard with bindings and large wheels for all terrain like snowboarding on grass, dirt and other surfaces
What is the difference between a jogging baby stroller and a regular stroller?
A regular stroller has four wheels and is made for sidewalks and flat surfaces. A jogging stroller has two wheels in the back and one in the front and can be used on rougher terrain.
When might you want to increase friction between two object?
Turning wheels against surfaces would require some amount of friction.
What 2 things can reduce frictional forces?
Oil that lubricates the surfaces. Also, as in the case of vehicles being driven along the roads, using wheels.
How fast does a longboard go flatland?
The speed of a longboard on flatland has more than just how fast you push in consideration. The quality of the wheels is important, as well as how maintained the bearings are, the road condition, and how much wind or force keeping you back there is. A smooth road with harder wheels is faster than a rocky road with hard wheels. Also, soft wheels are slower than hard wheels on most surfaces. Then you have to judge how hard you can push.
Can the sway bar lessen the misalignment of the wheel?
If your front axle and real axle are misaligned definitely not, if the left and right sides are misaligned then the sway bar can counteract the car's front wheels tendency to produce heel and toe (the pointing of the wheels inward converging towards the front of the car and outward toward the rear) under acceleration and really weak suspension. Likewise its will reduce the potential for slight negative camber (the cars wheels pointing outward towards the top of the car or "squatting" like its under heavy loads). The effects would really be quite negligible though, if your wheels are misaligned so much that buying a new sway bar is cheaper than realigning, you won't fix the issue with a realignment.
Application of fluid mechanics in aerospace?
-Air flow over the wing to generate lift. -Fuel flow in the pipes. -Air resistance/ Drag. -Hydraulics in the wheels, control surfaces.
