You have a false premise. Not ALL big things have bigger air resistance than small things. Air resistance must also factor in the direction of movement and the surface area against which the air is impacting, i.e., the shape of the objects.

Do bigger things have a greater gravitational force than small things?

It depends on the mass. The higher the mass the higher the gravitational force. Usually big things have higher masses than small things so the answer is yes, big things (usually) have a higher gravitational force than small things.


Do bigger parachutes have more air resistance or drag force than smaller parachute?

Bigger parachutes have more air resistance and drag force than smaller parachutes. This is because the larger surface area of the bigger parachute creates more friction with the air, resulting in increased resistance and drag.


Why does a motor have a bigger resistance than a bulb?

There is no particular reason why a motor should have a bigger resistance than a bulb. A motor's resistance must depend on what current it draws at the particular voltage it was designed to run on. Equally, a bulb's resistance must depend on what current it draws at the particular voltage it was designed to run on. A particular motor may have a higher resistance than one kind of bulb but that same motor may have a lower resistance than another kind of bulb.


Does a bigger object fly faster than a small object?

Not necessarily. The speed at which an object flies is more dependent on factors such as the force propelling it, air resistance, and aerodynamics rather than just its size. Two objects of different sizes can fly at the same speed if other factors are equal.


Will a smaller ball roll faster than a bigger ball?

Not necessarily. In a vacuum where air resistance is not a factor, objects of different sizes and weights will fall at the same rate due to gravity. However, external factors like friction and air resistance can affect the speed at which a ball rolls, regardless of its size.

Can Kirby Swallow anything bigger than it's size?

Kirby can swallow some things bigger than himself, but it cannot swallow anything bigger than a small boulder. Source: One of the Kirby: Right Back at Ya! episodes.


Do all forces make things move?

All forces make things move only if it is bigger than friction or resistance. In a vacuum (e.g. space), all forces make things move. But this is not reality.

Which dog barks more a toy poodle or a miniature yorkie?

toy poodles are normally bigger than miniture yorkies so toy poodles wouldnt be as scared of things of size as they are bigger than a yorkie but yorkies are small so they will be scared of more things as more things are bogger than them, the cause of most dogs barking is because they are scared, things bigger than the dog are usually the cause of barking. x
