Hi,
For a mouse trap car that is traveling about 10ft in the least amount of time, is it advisable to use wheels with a large diameter?
Basically, I am asking that given two wheels with THE SAME MASS, will the larger wheel always be faster in the same system? I've been thinking and I cannot figure out whether or not a larger wheel will be slower... The larger wheel should give more distance per cycle of the axle... is that all there is to it?
Thanks a lot.
