Why is it harder to move through a vicous liquid?

the viscous force is directly proportional to the viscosity of the fluid. so the more viscous a liquid is, more the viscous force and harder it is to move for a bod through it.


Why does weight slow down a car?

The foundation of physics is Newton's equation, force equals mass times acceleration. Hence, for a given amount of force, more mass equals less acceleration. Or in other words, it takes force to move a weight. The more weight you are trying to move, the more force you need.


Which of the two objects sun or Jupiter moves most as a result of this gravitational force and why?

Jupiter moves more, because it has less mass. The force between Sun and Jupiter is the same in both directions; according to force = mass x acceleration, Jupiter will accelerate more from the same force, and therefore move more.Jupiter moves more, because it has less mass.

You increase the object's acceleration.


Why would it require greater force to start a refrigerator moving than to start a book moving?

the force (F) to move is the coefficient of friction(u) times the normal force, or weight(W). F = uWSince the weight of the fridge is much more than the book it takes more force to move it
