friction on the road can be al life or death situation.
when there is a loss in friction or stickiness in tires it could result in cause understeeer or oversteer. if you not a drift racer then these would be bad things.
wet conditions can create a loss in friction and can cause you to hydroplane. that's when your car is no longer riding on the road surface instead it is riding on the water. this can lead to all sorts of pproblems like inablity to stop or steer.

What are the two factors that will affect the amount of kinetic energy on the moving vehicle on the road?
-- mass of the vehicle -- speed of the vehicle
Does surface type affect the force of friction?
Surface types can affect the force of friction because as the surface gets rough and rougher it has more friction and smooth surface has less friction. if we compare the affect of friction force on a ice and road. Road is much more rough than the ice chunk and if we slide a ice hockey puck on each of the surfaces, we get that smoother surfaces has less friction.
Friction between a wheel and a road?
Yes? This isn't much of a question but there IS friction between a wheel and the road. The friction between the tyre rubber and the road surface stops the rubber moving with respect to (wrt) the road when force is applied, allowing the vehicle itself to move. Some of the energy is dissipated as heat. During acceleration the boundary relationship represents 'inertial frame transition', and when in constant motion the wheel and bearings form the boundary between inertial frames.
Is the friction between car tires and pavement greater when the car is at rest or in motion?
Interesting - static friction is greater than moving friction; but if the car is not in a skid, then the part of the tires in contact with the road is not moving ... thus static friction holds in both cases.
What is a type of friction that enables a car to move?
Friction between the tires and the road. Without that kind of friction, we'd never be able to start moving, and wouldn't be able to stop!
What is moving resistance for vehicle?
Air friction, friction from the road
What are the two factors that will affect the amount of kinetic energy on the moving vehicle on the road?
-- mass of the vehicle -- speed of the vehicle
How do you derive banking of road?
If a vehicle is moving on a circular road which is rough and banked also then magnitude of N and direction plus magnitude of friction mainly depends on the speed of the vehicle V-
Why do cars skid on rainy days?
As there is no friction on the road,thus the road will not have friction that stop the car from moving.
What are the roles of friction and gravity in the car?
Friction in cars are produced by the tires and the clutch. The friction caused by the tires allow the vehicle to stay on the road, while the friction produced by the clutch makes it possible for the car to get moving. While gravity, for example supplies the force that pulls the vehicle down the hill.
Does speed affect the friction between a road and a skidding tire?
Speed does not affect the force of friction.
What prevents a moving bike from coasting forever in a straight line?
Friction. Air friction, road friction and mechanical friction.
When is friction good?
When driving because if there was no friction between the tires and the road, the vehicle would just slide of the road and crash.
Why the mass of an object has an effect on speed when moving on a road?
because the more heavy it is, the more friction it has on a road. the friction slows it down.
What is the friction that results from your tires interacting with the road that allows your vehicle to move forward?
This type of friction is called static friction.
How does friction affect cars positivly?
Yes, it keeps them on the road.
Why in rainy season the moving vehicles on road skid?
In rainy season, moving vehicles on the road will skid due to the loss of friction when the tires encounter water on the road.
