When heavy objects roll down something, fricition is involved. Friction is made by the rubbing of one thing against the other. Try rubbing your hands together reallly fast. Do your hands feel warm? Heavy objects have more friction, which slows down the heavy object. Lighter objects have less friction which cause it to run faster.
What else can I help you with?
What stops first a heavy object or a light one?
A light object has less momentum than a heavy object. A light object would stop first.
Who'll travel faster heavy or light object?
Assuming equal conditions, a light object will generally travel faster than a heavy object due to having less mass to accelerate. This is consistent with Newton's second law of motion, which states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.
Which travels faster on an incline a heavy object or a light object?
In general, both heavy and light objects will accelerate at the same rate when moving down an incline due to gravity. However, the heavy object will have more inertia, so it may require more force to move initially but will have a stronger pull down the incline once moving.
What happpens when light strikes a dark heavy object?
When light strikes a dark heavy object, the object absorbs more light because of its dark color and heavy mass. As a result, the object may heat up more than a lighter object, as it is transformed into thermal energy. The absorbed light energy is not reflected as much as it would be on a lighter object.
Why do objects all fall at the same time when gravity is the only force acting?
-- Because that's the way gravity behaves. -- Because is would be ridiculous to think that heavy objects fall faster. Here's why: ==> Let's say that heavy objects fall faster and light objects fall slower. ==> Take a piece of sticky tape and stick a light object onto the back of a heavy object. Then drop them together off of a roof. ==> The light object tries to fall slower and holds back, and the heavy object tries to fall faster and pulls forward. So when they're stuck together, they fall at some in-between speed. ==> But wait! When they're stuck together they weigh more than the heavy object alone. So how can a stuck-together object that's heavier than the heavy object alone fall at a speed that's slower than the heavy object alone ? ! ? Isn't that ridiculous ? There's no way that heavy objects can fall faster than light objects.
What happens when light hits a dark heavy object?
When light hits a dark, heavy object, the object absorbs more light energy due to its dark color, which raises its temperature. The heavy nature of the object allows it to retain the absorbed heat for a longer time compared to lighter objects. This can result in the object becoming warmer compared to lighter-colored objects exposed to the same amount of light.
If equal forces are applied to a light and a heavy object which one will accelerate more?
The heavy object will accelerate less than the light object if equal forces are applied. This is because the heavier object has more mass, so it requires more force to accelerate it.
Why doesn't a heavy object accelerate more than a light object when both are freely falling?
Here's the answer, and I love it. Let's assume that heavy objects fall fasterand light objects fall slower, just like everybody wants them to.Follow me now . . .-- Heavier objects fall faster. Lighter objects fall slower.-- Take a heavy object and a light object up to the roof of a tall building.Then take a piece of sticky tape, and stick the light object onto the backof the heavy one. Then walk carefully to the edge of the roof, and dropthe package over the side. As you do that, yell down "Look out below!"-- The heavier object normally falls faster, so it tries to pull the package ahead.The lighter object normally falls slower, so it tries to hold the package back. Soas they fight each other, the package falls at some middle speed, slower thanthe heavy object alone, and faster than the lighter object alone.-- But wait! They're taped together. How is that different from being glued together ?Or melted together ? Or welded together ? Or even inside the same skin ?-- Or even being the same single object ? They could just as well be a single object,one that weighs a little more than the original heavier object.-- But we just agreed that the package falls a little slower than the original heavier object,even though it's heavier than the original heavier object.-- Our orignal assumption . . . that a heavy object falls faster than a lght object . . . leads usdown the garden path to a ridiculous result.That assumption must be wrong.Don't ya just love it !
What happens when light strikes a heavy object?
When light strikes a heavy object, it can be absorbed, reflected, or transmitted. The specific outcome depends on the material composition and surface characteristics of the object. Some materials may absorb the light energy and convert it into heat, while others may reflect the light, making the object visible.
Why does a heavy object travel further than a light object with same force?
A heavy object travels further than a light object when acted upon by the same force because it has more inertia and requires more force to stop it. This means the heavy object will maintain its momentum and cover a longer distance before coming to a stop, compared to the lighter object.
What heavy object can be put on a light object?
-- A paper weight on a piece of paper. -- A car on an ant
Can any object move faster than sound?
yes, bot not faster than light
