Explain why air resistance is larger when the car is traveling faster?

Bikes cars and other moving objects experience air resistance as they move.Air resistance is caused by the frictional forces of the air against the vehicle. The faster the vehicle moves the bigger the air resistance becomes.


Where should a person experience the most air resistance?

A person would experience the most air resistance when moving at high speeds, such as when skydiving or driving a fast-moving vehicle. The resistance is greater in environments with higher air density, such as at lower altitudes.


When driving downhill your vehicle will accelerate and start moving fast due to?

the force of gravity pulling the vehicle downhill and overcoming the resistance of friction and air resistance. Gravity increases the vehicle's speed as it descends, requiring the driver to use braking or engine resistance to maintain control and prevent the vehicle from accelerating too quickly.


How do gears make motion easier for a construction vehicle?

Engines work best in a limited range of resistance and rate of rotation. Gears makes it possible to have the engine running in that range (almost) regardless of what speed the vehicle is moving at.W/o gears the engine would first struggle to get the car moving(where the resistance is too high), and once moving, the engine would struggle to get the car to speed, as the engine soon wouldn't be able to spin any faster.


What is air resistance on a car?

Air resistance is also called drag on a vehicle. When the vehicle moves forward it must push the air molecules out of the way, this causes resistance or friction. The faster the vehicle is going, the faster it is pushing the air molecules out of the way causing greater resistance.


What is the fine for not moving a vehicle for street sweeper cleaning?

The fine for not moving a vehicle for street sweeper cleaning varies depending on location. In Lakewood, California the fine for not moving your vehicle is $40.


Is air a source of resistance?

Yes, air can provide resistance to objects moving through it. This resistance, known as air resistance or drag, is caused by air molecules colliding with the moving object and can slow down its motion.


In which situation can you be at rest and moving at the same time.?

One situation where you can be at rest and moving at the same time is when you are inside a moving vehicle. While you are stationary relative to the vehicle (at rest), you are moving relative to an observer outside the vehicle.


Why do you fall when you jump from a moving vehicle?

You fall when you jump from a moving vehicle because you get the moving vehicle speed and immediately you have your feet on a stable ground and you have either to stop all of sudden or to run at the vehicle speed (that is higher than your capacity) .


Can you sit in the tailgate of a pickup truck?

It depends on the situation. If the vehicle is not moving, you are allowed to sit on the tailgate. If the vehicle is moving, you are not allowed as it is a moving violation since passengers cannot ride on the exterior of any vehicle.


What happens when the resistance force is larger than the effort force?

When the resistance force is larger than the effort force, it becomes difficult to overcome the resistance. This can result in the object not moving, moving slowly, or even moving in the opposite direction. Additional force or a change in strategy may be needed to overcome the resistance.


How fast is a vehicle moving with a slow moving vehicle sign on it?

It is moving at a maximum legal speed of 25 mph. However, it could be going slower. Legally, even if the vehicle can exceed 25 mph, it is not supposed to.
