Why does a loaded truck start more slowly than an empty truck?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To understand why a loaded truck starts more slowly than an empty truck, we can analyze the concept of inertia and how it relates to mass and acceleration. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Inertia**: - Inertia is the property of an object to resist changes in its state of motion. The more mass an object has, the greater its inertia. - Therefore, a loaded truck has more mass compared to an empty truck. ...
