I am building a project,where you drive a car on a straight road.
The car has 3 kinds of forces:
1)Torque of engine in the wheels
2)Friction on the tyres
3)Force due to air resistance
If a car accelerating,and is front wheel drive,then the 2 front wheels have these forces:
<-------(Engine Torque)-------O------(Static friction)-------------->
and the rear wheels
<-------(Rolling friction)-------O
so car has these forces:
<---(Engine torque,rolling friction,air resistance force)--(CAR)--(Static friction force)---->
So,Whats the total force?
F=engine_torque-air_resistance-rolling_friction-static_friction ?
I read that static friction causes movement...so static friction is equal to engine torque?I am comfused.
