Source sentences:
text: It might seem from the above definition of C r r {\displaystyle C_{rr}} that the rolling resistance is directly proportional to vehicle weight but it is not.
text: According to Dupuit (1837), rolling resistance (of wheeled carriages with wooden wheels with iron tires) is approximately inversely proportional to the square root of wheel diameter.
text: These contradict earlier (1785) tests by Coulomb of rolling wooden cylinders where Coulomb reported that rolling resistance was inversely proportional to the diameter of the wheel (known as "Coulomb's law").
