The engine does. Sometimes the wind can be behind it too

What force causes a car to stop?
Rolling friction causes a car to stop.
Which forces are working when car moving in forward direction?
Frictional Force
What causes a force to produce motion?
To move an object forward from rest the thrust of forward force must be greater than the drag acting in the opposite direction. In order to keep moving at a constant velocity the forward force must equal the drag.
How friction is useful in pushing a car?
If you are behind a car, about to push it forward from a resting position, you will need to exert a force on the car to accelerate it from resting position. While you are pushing against the car, however, there will be a reaction force pushing back at you. In order to produce a large net force against the car without being pushed backward yourself, you need to increase the friction of your feet against the ground...so that the frictional force between your feet and the ground prevents you from sliding backward. The combinations of the frictional force and your force pushing forward against the car will cause the car to move forward. The frictional force of the car being moved from resting position also has to be overcome, of course.
How does a constant forward force affect motion?
It causes the object to accelerateForce = Mass x Acceleration
If a car is traveling on the highway at a constant velocity the force that pushes the car forward must be?
1. force that moves a car forward is the friction force between the tires and the road (ignoring what is going on mechanically in the car) 2. if the car is travelling at constant velocity, net force is zero - forces pushing car forward are equal to forces pushing car back
When you get into a car accident what causes you to move forward with the car?
inertia
Compare the sizes of forward force and air resistance while a car is moving at 30mph?
when a car is speeding up how does the forward force and air resistance compare
What kind of force causes the forward motion of a shark?
pull
What force causes a car to stop?
Rolling friction causes a car to stop.
What force causes an automobile to move?
forward friction on the tyres from the road..
A seat belt helps you when your car stops suddenly by providing?
The seat belt makes an balance forward force because when the car stops you fall forward and the seat belt makes it so the force in your body stays balanced. So it becomes an balanced forward force.
What causes the vehicle to jump forward once when coming to a complete stop?
The jump is caused by G forces. The car is moving and you stop the car, but you dont stop right away. You keep going until another force acts upon you, which is yourself and gravity. This applies to the car too. First the brakes stop the wheel, then the wheel stops the axles... and so on. This causes the "jumping forward".
Suppose you are riding as a passenger in a car when the car stops suddenly What pushes you forward?
Force of Inertia
Why do you jolt forward when you're car stops?
A force called inertia.
Which forces are working when car moving in forward direction?
Frictional Force
What is meant by all forces in pairs?
When a force is acting on an object, there is always another equal and opposite force acting upon it. For example; a car that is travelling forward has a force of 'Thrust' which is pulling the car forward, as this occurs, 'Drag' or 'Air resistance' is also acting upon the car.
