Smaller cars have less momentum than bigger cars. What’s in motion stays in motion but objects with more momentum (can be from weight or from speed but in this case it’s about weight) tend to stay in motion longer.

If you increase the mass of an object and want to move an object a specific distance, what do you need to do
Alexxandr [17]

If you increase the mass of an object and want to move an object a specific distance, then you need to do extra work than the earlier

<h3>What is work done?</h3>

The total amount of energy transferred when a force is applied to move an object through some distance

Work Done = Force * Displacement

For example, let us suppose a force of 10 N is used to displace an object by a displacement of 5 m then the work done on the object can be calculated by the above-mentioned formula

work done = 10 N ×5 m

                 =50 N m

Thus, when an object's mass is increased and it is desired to move it a certain distance, more work must be done than previously.

13.<br>14. Why does a person feel weightlessness during freefall?​
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

When in free fall, the only force acting upon your body is the force of gravity - a non-contact force. Since the force of gravity cannot be felt without any other opposing forces, you would have no sensation of it. You would feel weightless when in a state of free fall.
