Yes. If it is heavy it will go slower than a light toy car, if it is light it will movefaster than a heavier car.

How does mass affect the speed of a car?

Well i know a lot about mass. MASS is how big and heavy the car is when running so if your car is very wide then mass will have a affect on it more than if it was a smaller car.The person who answered this oviously didnt know a lot about mass and didnt even answer the ques. A big car will be tougher to run because of the air resistance.


How does mass affect a cars speed down a ramp?

The mass of a car affects its speed down a ramp by influencing its inertia and gravitational force. A heavier car will accelerate slower than a lighter car due to its greater resistance to change in motion caused by its mass. However, once in motion, both cars will experience the same acceleration due to gravity down the ramp.


How does mass affect velocity on cars?

The larger the mass a car effects the velocity in that you require a stronger engine to make it accelerate at the same speed of a lighter car. Having a higher mass, it will take longer for it accelerate as well as for it to decelerate. Two cars that collide that have the same velocity and masses will stop, while if ones mass his higher it will cause greater damage to the smaller one.


How does the mass of a toy car affect its speed going down a ramp?

The weight of the car will cause the force of gravity to push it down with seemingly more force than the lighter car. And so this would make the car go faster down a slanted surface, which is the ramp.


What does reducing mass and friction improve on a co2 car?

Reducing mass and friction in a CO2 car can improve its overall speed and performance. With less mass to accelerate, the car can move more quickly, while reduced friction allows it to maintain momentum and travel farther. Both of these factors can help optimize the car's efficiency and competitiveness in a race.

How does the force exerted affect fan the car's speed pertaining to fan cars?

by moving it


Does mass affect speed when you put pennies on a toy car and let go down a ramp?

Yes, As a Boy scout we would weight our cars so that they would travel faster.


What must be necessary for two cars to have the same momentum while moving along the interstate?

The product of the car's mass and its speed must be the same for both cars.


What limits a cars speed?

There are a variation of things that affect the limit of a cars speed, primarily the horsepower and torque ratings of the car, in comparison to the weight of the car, but even with high ratings in comparison to weight, most cars also have a governing chip in the computer system, that shuts of the valves at a certain designated speed. I hope this answers your question.

Why might a car with a large mass use more fuel than a car with a smaller mass?

1/2mv^2 where m is mass and v is velocity. The fuel used is proportional (in a simplified view) to the kinetic energy of the car. Therefore if cars are to driven at the same speed (and ignoring the individual efficiencies of different models) the car that has a larger mass uses more fuel to get to and maintain the same speed

Does the placement of the wheels on a car change the speed of the car?

The placement wouldn't affect the speed, but would affect the handling.
