Do cars need friction to stop?

Yes, cars need friction between the tires and the road to stop. When the brakes are applied, the brake pads create friction against the brake rotors, which slows down the wheels and ultimately brings the car to a stop. Without friction, the tires would not be able to grip the road surface and the car would not be able to stop effectively.


Why are stopping distances for braking cars increased on wet roads?

Stopping distances are increased on wet roads because water reduces the friction between the tires and the road surface, making it harder for the tires to grip and stop the car effectively when the brakes are applied. This reduced grip means it takes longer for the car to come to a complete stop compared to dry road conditions.


Why do f1 cars need friction?

F1 cars need friction to maintain grip on the track and maximize traction, allowing for better acceleration, cornering, and braking performance. Friction is essential for the tires to generate the necessary grip to navigate the high-speed corners and stop effectively during racing conditions.


What does a temperature sensore do?

It measures temperature - either absolute or relative. The most common type consist of a resistor whose resistance changes with temperature; a voltage is applied and the current output is measured.


Two times when friction is useful?

Friction is useful in helping cars stop when brakes are applied, as the friction between the brake pads and the wheels slows down the vehicle. Friction is also beneficial in walking, as friction between the soles of shoes and the ground prevents slipping and provides traction.
