Bicycles don't build up as much inertia, because they have less mass, and are also usually moving slower than cars. the heavier and faster something is the longer it takes to stop.

Why it is easy to stop moving bicycle then the moving car with same speed?

It is easier to stop a bicycle than a car with the same speed because the bicycle has less mass and momentum compared to the car. The car's greater mass and momentum make it harder to stop quickly. The car's brakes also have to work against greater inertia, requiring more force and distance to stop.


How does Newtons 2 law explain why it is easier push a bicycle than to push a car with the same acceleration?

Essentially you're looking at F = ma acceleration, a = the same for both vehicles. The mass, m of a bike is much less than that of a car therefore; The required force to push a bike is much less than that required for a car. Therefore it's easier to push a bike.

Why is it easier to stop a car than a train?

It is easier to stop a car than a train because cars have smaller mass and less momentum than trains. Cars can also use friction from their brakes to slow down more quickly than trains, which rely on more complex braking systems due to their size and weight. Additionally, trains travel on tracks, which limits their ability to maneuver or stop suddenly.

How does Newton's second law explain why it is easier to push a bicycle than to push a car with the same acceleration?

The second law states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object. The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.Since a bicycle has much less mass than a car so it's easier to push it.


What is the similarities of a bicycle and a car?

bicycle is a vehicle usually with two wheels and a car is a vehicle with four wheels......Additional answerAlways with two wheels. The definition of bicycle is a two-wheeled vehicle. If it has more or less than 2 wheels then it's not a bicycle.A car is motorized and a bicycle is not. A bicycle saves energy. Of course, a 'motor' or 'electric' bicycle can be powered. Fundamentally a 'bicycle' has two wheels and a car has more (usually four).


Why is it easier to get a small car moving than a dump truck and which one is easier to stop and why?

Well,the small car weighs less then the dump truck,correct? It's similar to, "Why is it easier to lift a feather then a 20 pound weight?". And,since the dump truck is bigger,it gains more speed from its weight,and once it gets going,it's hard to stop.


It take more force to stop a train than a car?

It takes less force to stop a train than to stop a car.

Compares two unlike things using word such as like as than and resembles?

An analogy can be made between a car and a bicycle in terms of speed, where the car is faster than the bicycle. This comparison demonstrates the difference in their speed capabilities.
