Why does your car slow down while going uphill?
gravity!
Why is the stopping distance of a car traveling uphill is less than when it is traveling on a level road?
The stopping distance of a car traveling uphill can be less than on a level road due to gravity assisting in the deceleration process. When driving uphill, the incline can help slow down the car as it works against the forward momentum. This can lead to a shorter stopping distance compared to a level road where the car solely relies on its brakes to stop.
What are some things that might slow down a car as it travels down a ramp?
gravity. Going uphill is always harder thatn going along the flat.
Why does your 98 ford contour slow down when going uphill?
Because it doesn't have enough power to pull itself. All vehicles slow down uphill if you don't feed them more fuel.
Why would a car be going slower driving uphill?
Gravity is trying to push the car down the hill. It takes more power to overcome that push of gravity. Unless you give the car more gas it will slow down.
Why does your car slow while going uphill?
Gravity. The car is heavy and doesnt want to move, so you must excelerate to make the car go uphill. If a car is going downhill, the is no need to excelerate because gravity is pulling the car downhill.
What would happen if you shut your car off going 60 miles per hour?
On a flat surface it would slow down slowly before stopping. Downhill it may speed up. Uphill it may slow down, stop and start rolling backwards.
When you push a car what would make it stop?
The car will stop when you are no longer applying force to move it forward. Friction between the tires and the ground will gradually slow it down until it comes to a complete stop.
Will gravity slow down a bike?
Gravity itself does not slow down a bike. However, when riding uphill, gravity acts in the opposite direction, making it harder to pedal and potentially slowing the bike down. Additionally, gravity can contribute to the bike picking up speed when going downhill.
Why does a vehicle runs slow when it moves uphill?
Because you have gravity pulling you down and most cars arn't built for up hill
When does gravity affect your car speed?
Gravity affects your car speed when you are driving on a hill. When going uphill, gravity acts against the car's momentum, causing it to slow down unless the engine compensates with more power. When going downhill, gravity assists the car's momentum, causing it to speed up unless the brakes are used to control the speed.
What will slow a dragster car down?
A parachute.
