Check your wheel bearings. Dry wheel bearings can squeak but should also make a grinding noise at higher speeds. A loose wheel bearing can cause the brake rotor to be at an angle which rubs against the brake pad or wear indicator causing a squeak noise. These are a couple common causes. Find a safe area, raise the car and support it with jack stands. Rotate the squeaking tire and see if you can tell what is making the noise.
Small wheels would spin quicker and be more likely to slip, a larger diameter wheel would move slower and grip the surface better so all rotational movement of the wheel would be translated to forward motion - albeit at a slower speed. The energy input is fixed (the spring) the energy that you could lose is - wind resistance, friction in gears etc, and slippage (producing additional friction/heat)
Bad wheel bearing if you are referring to a grinding noise. A squeak can be many things. Loose power steering belt for one.
A dry wheel bearing will cause the rear wheel to squeak at low speeds. The wheel bearing should be checked immediately to avoid a major problem.
It would move slightly backwards due to no air resistance------------------------------------------------------- The above answer is rubbish. It would continue travelling forward. Whilst travelling forward it would also travel down. It would continue to travel forward until it slowed down to a zero forward speed ( DUE to air resistance ) but a terminal downward speed. Whether or not it would reach a zero forward speed and terminal downward speed would depend on how high it was when it was dropped.
Mine does the same thing, like shoes squeaking on a basketball court....? would really like to know what it is?!? Sounds like a posssible U-joint.
The placement wouldn't affect the speed, but would affect the handling.
Squeak is a verb and a noun. Verb: That door squeaks. Noun: I wish someone would fix the squeak.
To use squeak as an adjective, you would say squeaky.He was a squeaky little mouse.
I'd focus attention on the U joints or if it's a 2 piece drive shaft, check the center "carrier bearing".
Someone walking toward the back of the train would have a greater speed relative to you if you are stationary inside the train. This is because their speed would be the combination of their walking speed and the speed of the train moving forward.
get your wheels balanced
Loss of power, loss of forward momentum, loss of speed.
