What are the forces acting on the cars and explain why the cars do not slide down the hill?

The car is being acted upon by gravity and friction. The reason that the car doesn't slide down the hill is because friction is keeping the car in place.

The force that acts against moving objects is called?
Well, it depends on where and how fast the object is moving. However, forces acting against moving objects would be air resistance (eg. cars or a sky divers), friction (eg. a wheel rolling down a hill), gravity (eg. a ball being thrown into the air)
Explain how science and technology affect human life?
science has brougt about the invention of cars and machines, and this machines release smoke into the air and this destroies the ozone layer
When riding in a car we can sense changes in speed or direction through the forces the car applies on us. Do we wear seat belts in cars and airplanes to protect us from speed or from acceleration?
Acceleration
A scientist uses different types of gasoline in the engines of three identical cars. She measures how far the cars go before running out of gas. What is the dependent variable in this experiment?
The type of cars that are used.
Do gasoline make cars or trucks move?
Both. Cars and trucks use different types - cars use regular and trucks use deisel - but both are still gasoline.
What is the net force on the different cars of a subway train that is traveling at constant velocity?
If anything is traveling at constant velocity, then the net force acting on it must be zero.+++Strictly, it is travelling at constant speed, not velocity, because you have not specified the directions of the train and the retarding forces acting on it.
How does wet roads help racing cars?
It doesn't wet roads take traction away from racing cars. Race cars are fastest with slick tires, when the road is wet it forces them to use threaded tires to dissplace the water. If the racers want to slide easily around corners that the wet road would be helpful
Why does your 1980 300td lose speed going up hill?
All cars generally suffer from the stresses of opposite forces acting upon the car, this force in question is known as gravity.... funnily enough
What forces affect a race cars speed on a track?
Friction and Gravitational forces
Why people use the motocicle in India?
Well people uses more motorcycles then cars because when there's some traffic they can just slide in between the cars and pass and for the cars it takes longer they can't just slide and pass, they have to wait their turn. :)

How do you explain force?
Force - A force is a push or pull that is acting upon an object. Forces result from interactions between two objects. Most interactions involve contact. If you hit the wall, the wall hits you back. The contact interaction between your hand and the wall results in a mutual push upon both objects. The wall becomes nicked (if hit hard enough) and your hand hurts. Bumper cars experience mutual forces acting between them due to contact during a collision. Some forces can act from a distance without actual contact between the two interacting objects. Gravity is one such force. On a free fall ride, there is a force of gravitational attraction between the Earth and your body even though the Earth and your body are not in contact
How far a toy car will go on different surfaces?
There are too many variables that have not been specified and, as a result, it is impossible to give a sensible answer. Is the car on a plane surface or an inclined one or one that is "bumpy"? What pushing or pulling forces are acting on the car? What is the mass of the cars?
