The pistons are running in the cylinders of the engine, so when the rpm of the engine rises, the pistons quickley build up speed. It is this rapid acceleration of the pistons that casue the car to shake.

Car shakes during acceleration?

If a car shakes during acceleration the brake rotors may be damaged. If the rotors are damaged they will be unstable as the tires rotates making the whole car shake.


What would cause a Mercury sable to shake during acceleration?

If your car shakes while accelerating check your motor mounts. Then check your transmission.


What causes a car to shake on acceleration?

might have misaligned or loose wheels


What is the acceleration of the car during this time?

The acceleration of the car would be determined by dividing the change in velocity by the time taken. If the car started from rest and reached a speed of 30 m/s over 5 seconds, the acceleration would be 6 m/s^2.


Why does your car shake during idle and acceleration?

could be the engine mounts. could because of early detonation, which could be caused by overheating. it also could be a rod knock, which is more likely if it keeps shaking during acceleration and higher rpm's. first thing to check would be if its too hot, watch the temp guage, and make sure it doesnt get too high.


Why does car shake on acceleration when turning?

Assuming this is a front wheel drive vehicle, a CV joint in one of the halfshafts is going bad.


What causes a car to shake while braking and also a grinding type of noise on acceleration?

Warped rotor and worn out brake pads.


What is the car's acceleration between 25s and 30s?

The car's acceleration between 25s and 30s can be calculated by determining the change in velocity during that time interval and dividing it by the time elapsed. Acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time. You need to know the initial and final velocities of the car during that time period to calculate its acceleration.


What is an example of average acceleration?

An example of average acceleration would be a car starting from a stop and gradually increasing its speed to 60 mph over a period of 10 seconds. The average acceleration of the car during this time would be calculated as the change in velocity divided by the time taken to achieve that change.


Can a car move around a circular racetrack so that the car has a tangential acceleration but no centripetal acceleration?

No, If a car moves around a circular race track with any constant speed, the acceleration is directed towards the centre. So it has a centripetal acceleration. The tangential acceleration would be irrelevant unless the car has an instantaneous tangential velocity of zero. Then the centripetal acceleration is zero. However, this would only exist for that small instant in time.


How would acceleration effect your car?

It would make it go faster.


Would a bent rim cause your car to shake?

Yes, it can.
