What would happen if the force from the engine was bigger then the air resistance?
then the vehicle will go faster.
What is air resistance and what are the two factors that air resistance depends on?
Air Resistance is a force.
How molecules in the air cause air resistance?
How molecules in the air cause air resistance?
What is the force that opposes the motion of objects through air?
Air Resistance is the kinetic friction of the object's surface moving through the air. In aeronautical terms this is known as drag.
Is air resistance in a ball being thrown?
Yes, air resistance is on everything where there is air.
What is air resistance on a car?
Air resistance is also called drag on a vehicle. When the vehicle moves forward it must push the air molecules out of the way, this causes resistance or friction. The faster the vehicle is going, the faster it is pushing the air molecules out of the way causing greater resistance.
Explain why air resistance is larger when the car is traveling faster?
Bikes cars and other moving objects experience air resistance as they move.Air resistance is caused by the frictional forces of the air against the vehicle. The faster the vehicle moves the bigger the air resistance becomes.
What is moving resistance for vehicle?
Air friction, friction from the road
What happens to the air resistance on a car as the car goes faster?
The resistance is greater the faster the vehicle is going.
How do we reduce the effects of air resistance on a vehicle?
By giving it a streamlined shape.
If the force from the engine is bigger than the force of the air resistance?
The vehicle accelerates, assuming the engine is in a vehicle.
Why does the shape of an automobile body affect gasoline mileage?
The shape of the vehicle affects the amount of drag the vehicle produces. Drag being resistance to forward motion due to air mass resistance. The more air that vehicle has to move, the more drag it produces, and the less efficiently it will move.
What would happen if the force from the engine was bigger then the air resistance?
then the vehicle will go faster.
What is air resistance and what are the two factors that air resistance depends on?
Air Resistance is a force.
What force slows objects moving through the air?
Air resistance
How molecules in the air cause air resistance?
How molecules in the air cause air resistance?
Why does a small lightweight car how does a streamlined design improve fuel economy?
Anytime you have an object moving through the air, power is needed to overcome air resistance. The less resistance a vehicle has, the less power that is needed to push through the air and therefore, less fuel used.
