Land Vehicles

They roll to move the car and are covered with rubber tires for better grip.

To steer.  You turn the handlebars, which change the direction of the front wheel.

Helps the car start, stop, and turn safely.

These carry people (passenger cars) or things (freight cars)

The pedals are the part you push with your feet to move the bike.

Trains are large vehicles that move on tracks. They are used to carry passengers or goods over long distances.

This is the force when two surfaces rub together. It can slow vehicles down.

Cars have engines that burn fuel (like gasoline) or use electricity to create force. This force is called thrust, and it makes the car move forward.

Land vehicles move on the ground.

The front part that holds the engine and pulls the train.

The rails guide the train and keep it moving straight.

The part of the car that provides power.

These stop the bike by pressing against the wheels.

These slow the car down by creating friction.

The engine pulls or pushes the train cars along the rails. The smooth tracks reduce friction, so trains can carry very heavy loads easily.

When you push the pedals, they turn a chain connected to the back wheel. o This makes the wheel spin and move the bicycle forward.

Wheels reduce friction. This makes vehicles easier to move.

A stronger push or pull makes a vehicle go faster.

Bicycles are simple vehicles that people power by pedaling. They are great for exercise, fun, and getting around.

Cars are vehicles that use engines and wheels to move quickly on roads. They are one of the most common types of transportation.
