my parents didn't know so i looked it up. they (the computer) just said it was diffusion. but is that really true? 'cause i thought that all of our eyes were playing tricks on us. or is it really diffusion? if you know what it is just tell me.

Rocky and wet, with green bits. --------------------- Answer: Here on Mars its pretty red.
Rain.
Rain appears shiny and wet.
I call it, 'wet'.
No. Space is to all intents a vacuum, or very nearly so.
The road looks wet because of diffusion. See the attached link. Harvard "Hot Road Mirage" http://www.fas.harvard.edu/~scdiroff/lds/LightOptics/HotRoadMirage/HotRoadMirage.html
It doesn't wet roads take traction away from racing cars. Race cars are fastest with slick tires, when the road is wet it forces them to use threaded tires to dissplace the water. If the racers want to slide easily around corners that the wet road would be helpful

A wet road has less friction since the water acts as a lubricant.
"Road Grime" builds up, it is the result of exhaust, tire wear, oil leaks... It can make the road slippery and treacherous, especially when the road is also wet. This is why the first minutes of a rainstorm are particularly dangerous -- the rain is washing the grime away, but for a short while it is making it wet and slippery. Road cleaning helps control this.
A dry road typically has less friction than a wet road. Water on the road surface can reduce tire grip, leading to an increase in friction and longer stopping distances. The lower friction on wet roads can increase the risk of skidding and losing control of the vehicle.
Less traction on a wet road so the stopping distance increases.
Yes. There is less frictional force between the car tyres and a wet road surface than with a dry road surface.
Definitely because it's wet so, we must take an extra careful in driving a wet road.
Um, yes. When it rains the road is usually wet.
When the road is very wet, the tires lose contact with the road..
yes
