Because otherwise every car would be made with far superior materials, and have much larger price tags. As in, thousands of dollars more, if not hundreds. But more importantly, the steel is strong enough to take the abuse of a daily driver. That is why more exotic sports cars are made of alloys and other materials, they need to be stronger to keep up with the engine

Is steel an element of iron?
No, steel is not an element. It is actually considered an alloy, and the elements iron and carbon are the basic ingredients for making steel. Certainly other elements can be added for different reasons, like chromium for the production of stainless steel. But it is iron and carbon that make steel.

In comparing a 16 and 20 gauge steel casket the 16 gauge casket would be?
The strength, durability, and longevity of steel caskets depends first of all on the quality and thickness of the metal sheets used. The United States Standard Gauge for the thickness of metal sheets is based on the number of sheets required to total one inch. The gauge number (ga) informs about the thickness of the steel sheets in such a way that the lower the gauge number, the thicker the steel. Low cost carbon steel caskets are usually made of 20-gauge steel. (20 sheets of 20ga steel have a thickness of one inch.) Twenty gauge steel sheets have a thickness of 1/20" or 0,8 mm; this is the same thickness as used in many automobile body panels. More expensive steel Caskets are made from 18- and 16-gauge steel. 16 ga steel sheets have a thickness of 1/16" or 1,3 mm. 16 ga steel is twice as heavy as 20 ga steel, 140% stronger and has a 140% longer life than 20ga.
What is difference between MS steel and SS steel?
There are lots of stainless steels. Steel, by definition is an alloy containing carbon. The different alloyed elements give various steels their properties -- including strength, stiffness, brittleness, corrosion resistance, among others.Mild steel contains 0.16-0.29% carbon.Carbon steel has a carbon content in the range of 0.30-1.70% by weight.Stainless steel has a minimum of 11% chromium content by mass.Only stainless steel does not corrode."Stainless Steels" don't corrode because one of their alloying metals (usually chromium or molybdenum) forms a passivemigrates to the surface of the solid and forms a thin, hard oxide layer that is difficult to get through. In addition, there are electrochemical reasons why chromium and some other elements are resistant to corrosion.
How does D2 toolsteel compare to S7 tool steel?

What the reasons of using steel aluminum rubber and glass in passenger car?
Steel and aluminium because that's what the body is best made from. Rubber and glass, because you need windows that must be strong and mounted in shockproof frames. -And leather or vinyl for seats.
How did the growth of the automobile industry stimulte the growth of the steel industry?
The growth of the automobile industry significantly stimulated the steel industry due to the high demand for steel components in vehicle manufacturing. Automobiles require large quantities of steel for frames, bodies, and various parts, leading to increased production and investment in steel mills. Additionally, the rise of the automobile industry spurred innovations in steel production techniques, enhancing efficiency and output. This symbiotic relationship contributed to the overall economic growth of both industries during the 20th century.
