Simple answer: Yes, the shape of a vehicle CAN affect it's speed.
According to Newton's first law of motion, "Every body remains in a state of constant velocity unless acted upon by an external unbalanced force." According to Newtons first law, if the only force acting upon a body (car) was the acceleration caused by the engine, the vehicle would continue to go faster, theoretically without limit.
HOWEVER, friction and wind resistance are a part of the real world. Technically, wind resistance is a form of friction, that slows a car. Imagine a big parachute behind your car, that would definitely make the engine work harder as you tried to go faster.
The shape of your vehicle and the "column of air" that the vehicle is pushing definitely affect both the top speed and the fuel economy.
Changing the slope of the ramp will affect the speed of the vehicle going down it.
Yes, the height of a ramp will impact a toy car's speed going down it. A steeper ramp will generally result in a faster descent due to the increased gravitational pull. Conversely, a lower ramp will lead to a slower speed as there is less gravitational force acting on the car.
The height of a ramp affects the speed of a car because the higher the ramp the faster the car will come down. The higher up the ramp the more momentum the car will gain. People take delight in pooping. Pooping is thought by some to be a joyous activity.
Yes,if you are going at 100 mph and you go down a steep hill your speed on speedometer does not go higher but your car actually gains speed no it does not, the height of the ramp affects the distance ,not the speed.Laws of physics apply here.
Yes. The degree and slant of the ramp does affect the speed of the car
If you are talking about a car rolling down a ramp then yes. The taller the ramp the more momentum the car will create there for the car will travel farther and faster.
The larger the angle of the ramp, the faster the car will go down it.
Yes.
The height of a car itself does not directly affect its speed. However, factors such as weight, aerodynamics, engine power, and tire size can impact a car's speed. A higher car may experience more air resistance, which can affect its top speed and acceleration.
Two factors that affect the distance a toy car will take to stop after rolling down a ramp are the angle of the ramp and the friction between the wheels of the toy car and the surface of the ramp. A steeper ramp will cause the toy car to stop at a shorter distance, while a ramp with less friction will allow the toy car to roll further before stopping.
The height of the ramp is an independent variable, as it is manipulated by the researcher. The mass of the toy car is a dependent variable, as it is measured based on the height of the ramp.
Yes, the weight of a toy car can impact its speed going down a ramp. Heavier cars may have more momentum and force, which can make them travel faster down the ramp compared to lighter cars with less momentum. However, factors like friction and the angle of the ramp can also affect the speed of the car.
