Graphite powder is an awesome lubricant, use it in the axles tubes,(depending how the car is made), if it doesn't have axle tubes, adding them would greatly reduce frictions, basically glue in a straw that is slightly bigger than your axles then put the powdered graphite and its like a slick bearing now, just don't use anything wet, stick with dry lube..

What are five forces acting upon a balloon powered car?
There are five main forces acting upon a balloon powered car.The Gravitational Force (GRAVITY) - This force is pushing down on the car.The Normal/ Static Friction - This force is pushing upward, and is equal to the force of gravity. These two force react equally, and keep objects at rest.Air Resistance - This type of resistance/friction pushes against the car as it is in motion. Having a pointed tip/head (similar to a plane) helps to reduce air resistance.Kenetic Force - This is the force going in the opposite direction of Air Resistance. Kinetic energy exists in any moving object. The air being let out of the balloon is an example of this force.Rolling Friction - As the wheels roll, the dirt and raised parts of the floor cause friction beneath the wheels. This friction can slow the car down.

Do car brakes reduce friction?
Friction is what makes the brakes stop the car.
How do you create a balloon powered car that goes 15 feet?
Glue a balloon to a little toy car. Blow up the balloon, without tying the end. Set the car with balloon on the ground and watch the car be propelled by the air coming out of the balloon for about 15 feet.
What does reducing mass and friction improve on a co2 car?
by reducing the mass you reduce the friction, and by reducing the friction reduce the fuel needed to move the car, this applies to all cars not only CO2 cars.
How does friction affect the balloon powered car?
Friction will slow it down
What is the outside force causing my balloon powered car to stop in motions?
Friction
Can you give a hypothesis for a balloon powered car?
If the car is lighter, Then the balloon powered car will go further.
Who invented the balloon powered car?
There was no ballon powered car.
What is a Lego balloon car?
It is a toy car built from Lego's and it is balloon powered.
What can make your balloon powered car go faster?
use bigger wheels and use less friction on the ground make it weigh less
Is a water balloon a good size for a balloon powered car?
No
What would make your balloon powered car go the fastest?
red balloon
