Answer to Question #25184 in Mechanics | Relativity for VINOD ADE

Question

is moment of inertia of cart wheels is reponsible for its speed, explain

Answer 1

The wheel’smoment of inertial is responsible for its acceleration and, therefore, for
average speed at the track. This is because some energy is taken for wheels'
rotation. The maximum speed of card is dependent on engine characteristics as
well as on air resistance and road cover, not wheels' moments of inertia.
