Why does a car use more fuel going 70mph then going 50mph?
two things cause a car to slow down friction from the wheels and drag from the air. cars experience resistance from the air (drag) and this resistance increases as the speed of the air/car increases. As a result the more fuel is needed to keep the car going at a higher constant speed (you have to press harder on the gas pedal at that speed).
You got a speeding ticket for 92 in a 70 in Iowa you are from Minnesota can your parents find out the speed you were going if you tell them you were going a slower speed than actual?
They may find out through the car insurance company, The car insurance is higher when the speed if over 5 miles above the posted speed. It's always better to tell the truth.
What is that song that starts nobody going tobeat my car its going tobreak the speed of sound?
It's calledNobody Gonna Take My CarBy Democratic Underground.It is also Highway Star by Deep Purple in 1972
Can you get a ticket if going one mile over the limit?
Absolutely. Over the speed limit is over the speed limit. But it is very unlikely because the proof will not be there. Devices used to determine another car's speed, like radar guns, are not sufficiently exact to prove a 1 mile overlimit speed. Such devices have tolerances as much as 5 MPH, sometimes more, meaning that if the radar device reads 1 mile over the limit, the speed could really be anywhere between 4 MPH under the limit or 6 MPH over the limit. That possibility is sufficient to create a reasonable doubt that will prevent a conviction. What if the tolerance is 5 MPH and the reading is 67 MPH. That could be enough proof, but police have better things to do than stop a car for going a mile over the limit (like going after the people going 20 MPH over the limit). If they stopped every car for going 1 MPH over limit, they wouldn't be able to do anything but write tickets.
How accurate is a police radar gun when the car is going down hill?
Very accurate, it measures speed and doesn't care if the vehicle is traveling up or down, toward or away from the radar gun.
What are the usual injuries if one is hit by a car?
The injuries incurred from being hit by a car depend on the speed the car is moving and the car's size. Typically, being struck by a car will break bones at the least, and death is not uncommon, especially when a car is moving quickly.
What is the acceleration of a car going a constant speed of 100?
If the car is going at a constant speed of 100 km/h, then its acceleration is zero. Acceleration measures the rate of change of velocity, and since the car's speed is not increasing or decreasing, there is no acceleration.
Speed of car in MPH?
It matters how fast the car is going!
How do you put a picture of speed?
a car going by
Speed of a car per hour?
The speed of an car per hour[s] is the speed that the car is going.Example- If a car is going 75 miles for5 hours,what is the cars speed.The car speed is 75 miles per hour.
What is the speed limit on the highway if a car is going 106.6?
This question makes no sense, what do you mean? the speed of the car does not dictate the posted speed limit.
What is the speed of a car going 150km in 7200s?
25
What is faster A racehorse or a car at 50 mph?
If a racehorse and car are going 50mph they would both be going the same speed.
How do you know how fast you are going on a bike?
you have a car match your speed, then you look at your speed guage :P
Assuming a car is front wheel drive and assuming the car does not spin out on the truck. If a car pulls onto a truck going 65mph and the truck is going 60mph how fast will the car be traveling?
If the car pulls onto the truck while maintaining a speed of 65mph, and the truck is moving at 60mph, the car's overall speed will be 65mph. The car's speed does not change by being on the truck, it merely matches the truck's speed.
How Does the Slope Change Car's Speed?
The slope of a surface can affect a car's speed by influencing the force of gravity acting on the car. Going uphill will slow the car down as gravity works against the car's forward motion, while going downhill will speed the car up as gravity provides additional force in the direction of motion. Overall, steeper slopes will have a greater impact on the car's speed than gentle slopes.
A truck and a car are traveling down the highway at the same speed If the truck has a greater mass than the car how do their kinetic energies compare?
The kinetic energy of an object is directly proportional to its mass and speed. Since the truck has a greater mass than the car but they are traveling at the same speed, the truck will have more kinetic energy than the car.
