The truck has a greater mass and therefore a greater amount of inertia to overcome. To accelerate a greater mass requires a greater force.

How will the final velocity be greater then the initial velocity?

It doesn't necessarily mean that the final velocity is always greater than the initial, if the initial velocity was at rest or 0 m/s then any form of movement would be greater. In cases where the final is smaller is like running into a wall or a decrease in acceleration.


Who has the most kinetic energy a person running in a race or a plane in flight?

A plane in flight would have more kinetic energy than a person running in a race. This is because kinetic energy is directly proportional to an object's mass and velocity, and a plane's mass and velocity are much greater than that of a person.


Why do some people walk rather than run when its raining?

The velocity of the rain hitting the person running is greater than when the person is walking. This is felt on the human skin as non-periodic pressure. The faster the running, the greater the pressure - people feel this as increased "pain" after a certain point.


What has greater momentum and athlete with a mass of 90 kg or one with 100kg and they have the same velocity?

The athlete with a mass of 100 kg will have greater momentum because momentum is directly proportional to mass. Both athletes have the same velocity, so the athlete with the larger mass will have the greater momentum.


What is one example of velocity?

One example of Velocity is that if you are running in the same direction, your speed and velocity is the same. But if you are running AROUND the track, your speed is the same but your velocity is changing.


What would be the velocity of ball which is thrown by the man who running at the speed equal to the velocity of light?

As velocity never exceeds the velocity of light.... so i hope a man running with the velocity of light will not be able to throw a ball with any velocity.......... we may get the maximum n minimum velocity with which that can be thrown mathematically that we may get it to be zero................


What has greater kinetic energy a 1 lb ball rolling down a hill a 200 lb person running down a hill or a car driving down a hill?

The car driving down a hill will have the greatest kinetic energy due to its larger mass and likely higher velocity compared to the 1 lb ball rolling and the 200 lb person running down the hill. Kinetic energy is calculated as 0.5 * mass * velocity^2, so a higher mass and velocity will result in greater kinetic energy.


Which has a greater momentum a cheetah with a mass of about 74 kg and a running speed of up to 31 ms or an elephant with a mass of 7000 kg running at 18 kmhr?

The momentum of an object is determined by its mass and velocity. In this case, the cheetah with a mass of 74 kg and a speed of 31 m/s would have a greater momentum than the elephant with a mass of 7000 kg running at 18 km/hr. This is because momentum is proportional to both mass and velocity, and the cheetah has a higher speed despite having much less mass.


Obdh fault codes po171 system too lean bank1?

i please the engine is not running good and if you accelerate the engine is not accelerate and the code is p0171


1998 jimmy will run and go but after running for a while it won't accelerate?

It might be your catalytic converter.


Why does your ac stop blowing when you accelerate?

it shouldn't stop blowing, but the compressor will shut off momentarily while you accelerate to get slightly more horsepower than it would with the compressor running


Is it possible to run round an oval running track at constant velocity?

No, it is not. At a constant speed, yes. But velocity has a direction component, and by running on (following) a curve, a change of direction (and, therefore, velocity) will have to be made. Again, note that speed can stay the same, but velocity has a direction vector associated with it that cannot be ignored.
