How can a shape of a car be changed to reduce air resistance?
The car industry used a wind tunnel to find out how to make cars more wind resistant. Things like gaps in the doors and wing panels can even cause drag on a vehicle. Rubber on a car can cause drag. the smoother the surface the less the drag will be, even the wrong polish on a car can cause drag.
What is ram implosion wing?
A Ram Implosion wing is a wing that was designed by Robert Patterson, which redirects the flow of air in front of your vehicle. It creates a vortex in front of your vehicle, at speeds 65 mph or greater, in which causes a drafting affect for your vehicle. It simply redirects the flow of air that would normally cause a drag effect on your vehicle, and redirect it to cause it to pull your vehicle. Less drag resistance, equals less fuel that needs to be used to maintain highway speed equalling an increase in MPG in your vehicle.
Does dirt on the outside of a car cause drag?
No dirt is normally mynewt, so it does not cause drag, but if there was a large clump stuck to it yes, it would cause drag
What direction does drag act on a moving vehicle?
a huge gig
How does lowering back pressure affect the efficiency of the car?
Having a lower back end will cause your vehicle to tilt up in the front, causing drag. so lower back pressure will cause loss in Fuel efficiency.
Why does the shape of an automobile body affect gasoline mileage?
The shape of the vehicle affects the amount of drag the vehicle produces. Drag being resistance to forward motion due to air mass resistance. The more air that vehicle has to move, the more drag it produces, and the less efficiently it will move.
Why are friction and resistance called drag forces?
Drag is increased as speed of the vehicle increases, this is due to friction incurred as a result of air flowing over the body of the vehicle. In aircraft (as well as cars), engineers calculate the amount of thrust (in aircraft), or power (in cars), that is required to overcome the drag.
Why it important that tyres are maintained correctly as part of regular routine maintenance?
Multiple reasons. 1) If your tires are not balanced, the tires can shake your car and cause damage to the vehicle. 2) If you don't rotate your tires, UN-even wear on the treads can "pull" your vehicle to one side. Which can also cause damage to the vehicle and tires. 3) Under inflated tires can also put drag on a vehicle, causing damage to the vehicle and tires. All these reason can also affect your fuel economy as well.
How does drag racing work?
Drag racing can be a fun and dangerous sport. A drag racer works by driving the drag racing vehicle, this means they hit the clutch and gas at the right time and stop at the right time.
What causes rear drum brakes to drag?
The rear drums only drag cause they need to be adjusted or the drums are bad
How will you reduce drag forces in your bottle rocket?
the aerodynamics of the bottle can be increased or the bottle can be smoothened on all the sides therby increasing the aerodynamics therby decreasing the drag of the vehicle
What is the most cause of vehicle accidents?
the most cause of vehicle accidents is when you text while you drive
