In a vehicle, the weight shifts back during acceleration, giving more traction to the rear wheels.

Not exact matches

Estimating both the distance and recession speed of ancient Type - Ia supernovae allow astronomers to calculate the expansion of the universe, back during an era when matter in the universe was still relatively dense and expansion was still slowing under the influence of gravity and before its later hypothesized, subsequent acceleration from a mysterious repulsive force (more from NASA's Observatorium and NERSC's press release).

While some argued that the CVT matched the laid - back demeanor of the Cube, there's no denying that it also makes for elastic throttle response and a droning engine during acceleration, which helped to cement the impression that this is not at all a driver's car.

The Versa isn't designed to thrill in the corners or press you back against the seat during acceleration.

During heavy acceleration, weight is shifted to the back, improving traction at the rear wheels at the expense of the front driving wheels; consequently, most racing cars are rear - wheel drive for acceleration.

It can move the car entirely on battery power at modest acceleration during an initial launch from a stop or at other times under low torque demand and when slowing the car by regenerating electricity back into the 1.3 - kWh lithium - ion battery.

It also helps explain the initial cooling after the Industrial Revolution began (the smoke effect overwhelmed the relatively weak warming effect back then), the increase of global temperture during WW2 (shut down of industries) and decrease after WW2 (re-industrialization) and acceleration in the 1970's after the passage of the Clean Air Act.
