Why it difficult to walk on a slippery road?
Walking on a slippery road is difficult because there is reduced friction between your shoes and the surface, making it challenging to gain traction and maintain your balance. This can cause you to slip and fall, increasing the risk of injury. Your muscles have to work harder to stabilize your body, making walking on a slippery road more strenuous.
