What are 10 second cars?
it depends how fast you are going and how slow you could be going,so all in all it could be a meter or it could be more than that depending on speed.
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.
Can two cars of equal speed have equal velocities?
Yes. If they are traveling in the same direction and at the same speed, then they have the same velocity.
If 2 identical cars crash and each is traveling at 50 mph is the impact speed 50 mph or 100 mph and why?
The impact speed for each car is 50 mph. During the crash, both cars are accelerated from a speed of 50 mph to zero, hence the impact speed is 50 mph. The relative speed between each car, however, is 100 mph.
How does wind speed effect cars?
Wind speed may affect cars, effect change to aspects of cars or have an effect upon cars but, to say that wind speed effects cars is most likely a typo. I recommend changing the question.

What is the function of speed?
It's used for the speedometer and the cars ECU (computer). It tells both how fast your going.
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.
