Is easier to move a suitcase on wheels rather than pushing it why?
Rolling reduces friction. It is always easier to roll than to slide a body over another. Since the rolling friction is smaller than the sliding friction, sliding is replaced in most machines by rolling by means of wheels and ball bearings.

It is convenient to pull a luggage fitted with rollers because rolling friction is smaller than the sliding friction.
On the other hand if we pull an object, then the vertical component acts in the upward direction, reducing the force of friction. So, when there will be less force of friction, it is easier in that case to move the body. Hence, it is easier to pull than to push a body.
Advantages of Rolling SuitcasesThey're easy to move and (literally) take the weight of traveling off your shoulders. This is especially helpful when transporting a heavy load. Rolling suitcases usually have tough exteriors made of extremely strong fabric or hard shells that are better at protecting fragile belongings.
Soft-shell luggage, while similar in external size to hard-shell luggage, can frequently offer slightly more internal storage space (as long as inline wheels and not spinners are part of its features).
In a two-wheel design, the wheels tend to be larger than the wheels on 4-wheel models, so they roll forward in a straight line better than 4-wheeled bags, thanks to the sheer physics of their size. If speed is your highest priority, choose a 2-wheeled bag.
After your baggage has been declared lost, the airline is responsible for compensating you for your bags' contents. For domestic flights, the DOT allows airlines to limit their liability. The maximum amount an airline has to pay you for lost or delayed luggage on a domestic flight is $3,800.
