You shouldn’t need data, it’s common sense. How long does it take a car to go from stopped to 30mph? Five seconds? How long does it take a cyclist to go from stopped to 10mph? Certainly not less five seconds. In those scenarios, average acceleration for the car is 6mph/s, for the cyclist it’s 2mph/s.
- qubex 4y agoAs you say so yourself that’s average acceleration. No contest there.
- MisterMower 4y agoWell you don’t know the difference between momentum and acceleration so I figured I’d walk you through a little thought experiment. Sorry you didn’t find it helpful!
- qubex 4y agoI don’t know the difference between [difference in] momentum and acceleration?? Says whom?? Δp=mΔv=FΔt
