How many lug nuts on a car?
Answer Depends on the car. Most sedans and coups have 16 or 20 (i.e. 4 or 5 on each wheel). Midsize trucks often have 5 per wheel. Larger trucks, 6 per wheel. Large trucks (Ford F-250s and the like) 8 per wheel. Buses and larger vehicles can have 10 or more per wheel.
Explain why large trucks have bigger steering wheels than small trucks or cars?
The rotation of the steering shaft drives the turning of the wheels, and buses and large trucks have wheels which are significantly more massive than cars' and light trucks', requiring more torque on the steering shaft to turn the wheels. The larger steering wheel gives a mechanical advantage in turning the steering shaft; a longer moment-arm from the application of force by the driver on the steering wheel results in a larger torque on the steering shaft from the same force applied.
