Well, honey, the weight of a Hot Wheels car affects the distance it travels because it impacts the force needed to propel it forward. A heavier car requires more force to move it, so it may not travel as far as a lighter car with the same initial force. So, if you want that little sucker to go the distance, maybe lay off the snacks and keep it light and speedy.

Friction affects stopping distance of a toy car rolling down?

Friction plays a key role in determining the stopping distance of a toy car rolling down a surface. The greater the friction between the wheels of the car and the surface, the shorter the stopping distance will be. Conversely, if there is less friction, the stopping distance will be longer. Other factors such as the speed of the toy car, the weight of the car, and the surface roughness will also influence the stopping distance.


How does the distribution of the weight of the mousetrap car affect the traction of the wheels?

The more weight over the drive wheels, the more traction.

No they are not.


Does the size of the wheels on a car effect it's performance?

yes


How does friction effect a toy model car?

it depends on what the car is doing, everything is effected my gravity which is pushing down and the surface its touching(wheels to the pavement) is causing friction, then when its rolling you also have rolling mass and contact patch of the wheels and weight.. you need to be a little more specific


Is a car suspension spring compressed when the car is parked if so is it the actuall weight of the car compressing it and is the weight of the car shared by four wheels?

Yes, yes and yes.


What Two factors that affect the distance taken for a toy car to stop?

Air resistance against the car as it travels and the friction of the wheels against the ground slows it down and so reduces the toy car's potential travelling distance The weight of the car\on the car, the slope of the ramp and the material the car lands on or on the ramp


How do you make a mousetrap car pull weight?

if you mean "how do you make a mousetrap pull a car's weight" then you do it through pulleys. for example, if a mousetrap exerted 10N of force and a car needed 10000N to pull it, the pulley you use would need a distance input : distance output ratio of 1000:1 (aka if you pull one side 1000 meters, the other side moves 1 meter). this would enable you to move the car theoretically, but in reality, the distance the car moves would be so small that it would be useless, and even then, it is more likely for whatever rope/chain you are using to just stretch slightly.


What factors will affect the performance of a CO2 car?

Aerodynamics of the car, the size of the wheels, the weight of the car, and the size of the CO2 cartridge.


Why are big wheels better for a mousetrap car?

Because the axle is moving just as many rotations but since the wheels are bigger it's moving a greater distance. Because it's a big wheel, after all the string is gone, the wheels keep moving, which lets your car coast a longer distance.


What is the effect of friction of a speed of a toy car?

If the toy car is on a smooth surface, there is less friction. Therefore, the car will most likely go faster. On the other hand, if the car is on a bumpy surface, there is plenty of friction. Therefore, the car will most likely go slower and stop at a shorter distance.
