Yes. If it is heavy it will go slower than a light toy car, if it is light it will movefaster than a heavier car.

How does mass affect a cars speed down a ramp?

The car's mass should have no effect on that speed.


How does mass affect velocity on cars?

The larger the mass a car effects the velocity in that you require a stronger engine to make it accelerate at the same speed of a lighter car. Having a higher mass, it will take longer for it accelerate as well as for it to decelerate. Two cars that collide that have the same velocity and masses will stop, while if ones mass his higher it will cause greater damage to the smaller one.


How does mass affect the speed of a car?

Well i know a lot about mass. MASS is how big and heavy the car is when running so if your car is very wide then mass will have a affect on it more than if it was a smaller car.The person who answered this oviously didnt know a lot about mass and didnt even answer the ques. A big car will be tougher to run because of the air resistance.


How does the wheel affect the speed of a car?

All tires have a speed rating, driving above is "Highly Not Recommended" as the tire can/will come apart due to heat build up. There where cars limited in speed due to this reason.


How does the speed of the combined cars compare to the speed of the car before the collision when a parked car is hit by a moving car and the two cars stick together?

The combined VELOCITY of two cars that crash will be somewhere between that of the individual cars. In this case, the combined speed will be less than the speed of the car that was moving before the crash.If you know the velocities and the masses, the exact speeds can be calculated using conservation of momentum.

Does mass affect speed when you put pennies on a toy car and let go down a ramp?

Yes, As a Boy scout we would weight our cars so that they would travel faster.


What must be necessary for two cars to have the same momentum while moving along the interstate?

The product of the car's mass and its speed must be the same for both cars.

What limits a cars speed?

There are a variation of things that affect the limit of a cars speed, primarily the horsepower and torque ratings of the car, in comparison to the weight of the car, but even with high ratings in comparison to weight, most cars also have a governing chip in the computer system, that shuts of the valves at a certain designated speed. I hope this answers your question.


Why might a car with a large mass use more fuel than a car with a smaller mass?

1/2mv^2 where m is mass and v is velocity. The fuel used is proportional (in a simplified view) to the kinetic energy of the car. Therefore if cars are to driven at the same speed (and ignoring the individual efficiencies of different models) the car that has a larger mass uses more fuel to get to and maintain the same speed

Does the placement of the wheels on a car change the speed of the car?

The placement wouldn't affect the speed, but would affect the handling.


How does the size of a toy car affect its speed?

It would affect its speed because the weight of the car is gonna slow it down
