When you are running on a road, the friction between your shoes and the road surface is what helps propel you forward. This friction is necessary to provide the traction needed for you to push off the ground and move in the desired direction.
Yes, the force of static friction is also acting between the soles of your shoes and the road surface to help propel you forward while running. This force allows you to push off the ground and move in the direction you want.
Yes, in addition to the frictional force of the road, there is the force of gravity acting on you as you run. Gravity pulls you downward towards the Earth's center, while the frictional force opposes the motion between your feet and the road surface.
The main types of frictional forces acting on us while running are static friction and kinetic friction. Static friction occurs when your foot is in contact with the ground and prevents slipping. Kinetic friction occurs when your foot is sliding against the ground as you push off during each stride.
An example of a force acting on a moving car is friction between the tires and the road. This friction force allows the tires to grip the road surface and generate the necessary traction for the car to accelerate, decelerate, or make turns.
Friction is the only thing preventing the wheels spinning. The point on the wheel touching the road is trying to push the road backwards, and if it doesn't slip the road resists with an opposing frictional force. This force will equal the sum of all the forces trying to stop the car (wind resistance etc) plus any mass x acceleration of the car.

The reaction force to the friction acting on the car is the friction force acting on the road. It acts on the car in the opposite direction to the friction force acting on the car.
I believe that would be friction.

friction acting btw the road surface and wheel depends upon the braking retardation of the vehicle. every surface has its own friction coefficient which represents the maximum value , however friction can act in range from 0 to that max value , and this value depends upon the braking retardation.

If friction is ignored, the ramp required to lift the road would be at a 45 degree angle. This is because at a 45 degree angle, the components of the gravitational force acting on the object perpendicular to the ramp would be equal to the force needed to lift the road.
The friction of running car tires on a road primarily causes kinetic energy to be converted into heat energy. This heat energy is a result of the resistance that occurs between the tires and the road surface, ultimately leading to a loss of energy in the form of heat.
If you are thinking about driving your car down the road, you require friction between your tires and the road to do so. This is known as kinetic friction, and in classical physics, the equation is as follows:f = mu*Nwhere mu is the coefficient of kinetic friction, N is the normal force (force acting perpendicular to the road by the road), and f is the force of friction acting parallel to the road at the point of contact with your tires.Introduce a thin layer of ice to the road and the coefficient of kinetic friction between your tires and the road drops drastically (mu in the above equation). As a result, your car cannot efficiently convert the force from your engine to a friction force between your tires and the road leading to rotational movement. Depending on the structure of the snow, it will also variably drop the coefficient of kinetic friction.This is why, if you are moving and hit a patch of ice, you may temporarily lose control because your car will be at the mercy of the surroundings and its momentum (or inertia) rather than the steering system (no friction means no response from the steering wheel). Alternatively, if the car is at rest, it will be difficult to start moving.tl;drIce or snow decrease the coefficient of static friction for a surface variably depending on structure. This will decrease the friction force between an object and the surface.
A wet road has less friction since the water acts as a lubricant.
