Why does a driver of a car have to continuously apply pressure to the gas pedal in order to the car cruising at a steady speed even on a flat road?
Friction is the reason why anything slows down in this world we live in today. There are many factors in which a car is slowed down from a constant speed it would hold in a frictionless reallity. Air resistance is one factor (also known as drag). Wind tunnels are used to create airplanes and cars with less drag, aka air resistance. It is the fact that the car has to push through the natural atmosphere of the planet earth. Gravity on the car also slows the pace of the car. The friction between the tires on the vehicle and the road you are driving on. The transmission's gears slow down the pass of the car as well. The compression ring on the pistons also slows down the camshaft of the engine which ends up slowing down the tranny because the gears are still engaged. The oil in the engine and oil in the transmission slows down the tranny. A car has an accelerator to determine the speed of the car.
