There are 2 main reasons, first is that with every up-shift of the transmission the mechanical advantage of the gearing lowers.( example: riding up hill on a 10speed bike in 1st gear vs.10th gear, 1st is easier.) The second reason is that wind resistance increases 4times when the speed doubles. (example: sticking your hand out the window of a car going 20mph vs. when the car is doing 100mph and you'll feel the difference.)Wind resistance is main limiting factor for top speed o most sports cars.

How is increasing speed acceleration?
By definition acceleration is the change in velocity (speed).
If the acceleration is increasing with time will the velocity graph be a straight line concave up or concave down?
Concave up. "Acceleration is increasing with time" tells us that the derivative of acceleration is positive. Since acceleration is the derivative of velocity, this means that the second derivative of velocity is positive. By definition, having a non-negative second derivative means that velocity is concave up.
Does a softball have a positive or negative acceleration when it is thrown?
When a softball is thrown, it has a positive acceleration because its velocity is increasing with time as it moves through the air.
Does zero acceleration mean you are stopped?
Yes it does. Sources: 8 grade science textbook wikipedia
The slope of velocity time graph is changing what does it indicate?
A changing slope on a velocity-time graph indicates that the object's acceleration is changing. If the slope is increasing, the acceleration is positive, and if the slope is decreasing, the acceleration is negative. A flat slope indicates constant velocity.
How do you spell xlr8tion?
ACCELERATION : in the process of increasing velocity or speed, especially continuously (e.g. gravity, race cars).
How does force affects mass and acceleration?
Increasing force increases acceleration but increasing mass decreases acceleration.
Is it possible for an object to have an increasing velocity and an increasing acceleration?
If your acceleration is increasing then by default your velocity has to increase. Acceleration = velocity/time so if acceleration is increasing the velocity is also increasing... And just for fun, just as the change in distance is velocity, and change in velocity is acceleration with respect to time, the change in acceleration with respect to Time is called a jerk
What is ramp voltage?
Ramp voltage is a voltage that can be steadily increasing or decreasing.
What conclusion can you draw about the acceleration is it constant increasing decresing or zero?
If acceleration is constant, it means the velocity is changing at a constant rate. If acceleration is increasing, it means the velocity is increasing at an increasing rate. If acceleration is decreasing, it means the velocity is increasing at a decreasing rate. If the acceleration is zero, it means there is no change in velocity.
Is increasing acceleration the same as positive acceleration?
Yes, increasing acceleration means that the rate of change of velocity is increasing, which implies positive acceleration. Positive acceleration corresponds to speeding up, while negative acceleration (deceleration) corresponds to slowing down.
How is increasing speed acceleration?
By definition acceleration is the change in velocity (speed).
Does increasing mass increase acceleration?
No, increasing mass does not increase acceleration. Acceleration is dependent on the force applied to an object and the object's mass. In the equation F = ma, where F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration, increasing mass would actually decrease acceleration if the force remains constant.
What variables affect the acceleration of an object and in what manner do they affect the acceleration?
The acceleration of an object is affected by the force applied to it and its mass. Increasing the force applied to an object will increase its acceleration, while increasing the mass of an object will decrease its acceleration for the same force applied.
What is to analyze acceleration Is it increasing or decreasing?
To analyze acceleration, you need to look at how an object's velocity is changing. If the acceleration is positive, it is increasing, meaning the object is speeding up. If the acceleration is negative, it is decreasing, which indicates the object is slowing down.
What is increasing linearly?
A variable Y is said to increase linearly with another variable X if every increase of a fixed amount in X results in another fixed increase in Y. In terms of a graph, the relationship is a straight line.
Does acceleration have a negative or positive value if the velocity is increasing speed?
In this case, acceleration is positive. Negative acceleration would cause the object to slow down (decelerate.)
