Cars are typically lighter and have more power-to-weight ratio than loaded trucks, allowing them to accelerate faster uphill. Additionally, cars often have more aerodynamic designs, which can help reduce air resistance and improve fuel efficiency during uphill climbs.

Why does a truck carrying a heavy load move uphill slower than an empty truck even though the engine exerts the same force?

The extra weight of the heavy load increases the truck's inertia, requiring more force from the engine to accelerate. This results in slower uphill movement as the engine works harder to overcome the increased resistance from gravity and inertia.

Does fully loaded truck or empty truck have more momentum?

Newton's laws of Motion state that Momentum is a product of Mass times velocity. Momentum = Mass x velocity. Therefore, a loaded truck needs a larger force to move it, and once it's moving, it needs more powerful brakes to stop it. So a fully loaded truck will have more momentum and be harder to stop than an empty truck.
