∙ 13y agoOn a regular bicycle the rear wheel will carry more of the weight, so the rear tire will be compressed more. This compression will effectively reduce the diameter, making the rear tire turn more times than the front.
Also, if road conditions are poor the rear(drive) wheel can slip when pedalling to the point of giving a measurable larger number of rotations.

∙ 13y agoA bus has more kinetic energy than a bicycle because it has greater mass and moves at a higher speed. Kinetic energy is proportional to mass and velocity squared, so the larger mass and higher speed of the bus contribute to its greater kinetic energy compared to a bicycle.
The penny farthing is a type of bicycle. The bicycle has a large front wheel with a seat on top and a tiny back wheel. The bicycle was invented by Eugene Meyer. The bicycle was invented because the larger wheel meant higher speeds by which the cyclist could travel.

Every bicycle maker uses their own bicycle (size) geometry formula. Such formulas have been refined throughout the years, and in many instances, completely redesigned as the riding styles have drastically changed over the years. Many custom bicycle makers do use a special computer application for determining ones ( a rider) optimal bicycle geometry - which can also be calculated by a Certified Bicycle Fitter, found at many higher-end bicycle shops.
The days would be longer, and the gravity would be higher if the rotation time of earth was longer. The days would be shorter, and there would be less gravity on Earth if the rotation time decreased.
The sun has two types of period of rotation, the sidereal rotation period and the synodic rotation period. The sidereal rotation period is 24.47 days. The synodic rotation period is 26.24 days.
Kitchen counter stools are used for exactly that. They are used in kitchens and placed along the bar counter which is a little higher than the usual dining table.
While a truck may have more mass than a bicycle, momentum is also influenced by velocity. If the bicycle is traveling at a significantly higher speed than the truck, it can have more momentum due to the combination of its mass and velocity. Momentum is calculated as mass multiplied by velocity, so a lighter object with higher velocity can have more momentum than a heavier object with lower velocity.
RPM = Rotations Per Minutes. the higher the rotation speed, the faster your computer can read/find your files.
the higher the number, the harder it is to peddle, but you will go faster
pedal harder and fasterkeep pedalling at the same pace, but change to a higher gear
A moped helmet is sturdier, heavier and less ventilated. It is expected to provide decent protection at accidents at higher speeds than a bicycle helmet. A bicycle helmet is lighter, better ventilated and only has to provide decent protection at lower speeds than a moped helmet.
