Wind exerts a dynamic force on a shopping cart, primarily acting as a lateral or drag force. This force can push the cart sideways or cause it to move in the direction of the wind, depending on the wind's speed and direction. Additionally, the wind can create instability, making it more challenging to control the cart. Overall, the wind's impact on a shopping cart is a combination of aerodynamic drag and lateral force.
What else can I help you with?
Wind waker- who can decipher the tri force cart?
Tingle can! But he will charge you at least 300 rupees so you'd better start saving. :)
A force between the ocean and the wind causes what type surface currents?
friction
What is an instrument for measuring wind force?
You can measure wind force with force transducer.
What is the temperature we feel in cold weather due to the effect of the wind?
This is because the wind is a cycle that goes around and the wind has more force which makes the person feel colder.
What would make shopping carts better?
I watched a Nightline program about 10 years ago about a company named IDEO in Palo Alto California that redesigns stuff. A summary of their work can be found here:http://www.ideo.com/work/item/shopping-cart-concept/The crew followed the creative process and the implementation of a redesigned shopping carts. Keep in mind that the drawbacks of the current design are: it can reach a speed of 35 mph in a high wind (I witnessed this occurrence several years ago), and is difficult to steer and manuveure through congested aisle, has parts that can pinch a child, either in the approved seat or as many parents do, in the underneath of the cart, and is stolen alot.The redesign that worked replaced the steel cart with a composite materials bare frame. Individual baskets replace one big basket. Each basket resemble the baskets used by stores know. The shopper parks the cart, carries the basket down the aisle, collects the stuff and returns it to the cart. Professional shoppers (and myself) use this method of shopping.Checkout is a breeze. the items are placed in plastic bags, which are hung on hooks on the frame. the cart is wheeled outside, the bags placed in the vehicle, and the cart placed in the storage area. If a cart is left out in a high wind, there is not much that it can use to catch it and speed across the parking lot.
What information does the wind speed force chart provide?
The wind speed force chart provides information on the relationship between wind speed and the force of the wind, helping to understand how strong the wind is at different speeds.
Why is wind like force considered a vector quantity?
Wind force is considered a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction. The strength of the wind is the magnitude of the force, and the direction of the wind indicates the direction of the force. This makes wind force suitable for representation as a vector in physics.
How do sailboats sail into the wind?
Wind Force + Drag Force = Boat Mass * Acceleration.The wind force overcomes the drag force of the boat.Drag Force = Water Pressure * Keel Area + Air Pressure* Exposed Boat AreaMost of the drag is due to the keel moving through the water. The sails, lines, mast, crew and cargo also add wind resistance.Wind Force = Wind Pressure* Sail Area.The greater the wind pressure and the greater the area of the sail, the greater the wind force.
Is wind a force of the hydrosphere?
No, wind is not a force of the hydrosphere. Wind is a part of the atmosphere, which is separate from the hydrosphere. The hydrosphere includes all the water on Earth, such as oceans, lakes, rivers, and groundwater.
How does a grocery cart violate newtons law of inertia?
It doesn't. A grocery cart can neither start moving on its own nor stop on its own. An unbalanced force must be applied for either motion. Sometimes grocery carts appear to be moving on there own, but they are being pushed by the wind, or they may be on an incline and may move under the force of gravity. (Or the one you see moving may have been pushed by somebody who then let go.)
What is the name of the force that causes wind to blow?
Air is set in motion by the Pressure Gradient Force. The Coriolis Force is also relevant, which acts on air once it has been sent into motion (wind) by the PGF. However, don't confuse this Coriolis Force as a force CAUSING wind to blow as it only influences wind direction and NEVER wind speed.
If a truck was hit by a shopping cart during a windstorm and the business claims it was an act of God are they liable?
Depends. If you took this to a small claims court, be prepared to answer questions such as: how common are winds of this nature in your area? What is the slope of the parking lot? How long was the shopping cart in the lot? Could you forsee this? Negligence is dependent on knowledge, timelyness and due diligence. Lets say the parking lot was steep (you'll never see one with shopping carts!) The owner is liable just for providing shopping carts. A good judge might mete out a percentage of liability. The answer is no, the business is not liable. The owner of the shopping cart is only required to meet a standard of reasonable care in protecting vehicles (or people) from damage by wind blown shopping carts. This standard is very minimal. If a business checks their parking lot regularly they have met the standard. If they provide corrals for carts and staff the parking lot they have exceeded the legal standard. It would not be reasonable to expect every cart to be gathered immediatly and on the flip side it is not reasonable for a business to let their parking lot be overrun with shopping carts that pose a clear hazard. Of course if an employee of the business strikes a vehicle the business is liable. However if another customer does it that customer is liable.
