How do trees help reduce friction?
Yes, they do. I shall explain:
The trees are able to do this by making the wheels on the bus reach their maximum revolution-rate and therefore go round and round. So. The friction of the road, or say the palm of your hand against your best friend's back, will increase unless trees exist in your back garden. So, that is in short why trees help reduce friction.
Can you describe how accents can serve as noise?
When an accent sounds very unpleasant to people, they might well call it a "noise", it all depends on which accents certain people like to hear and which ones they find unpleasant!
For example:
- folks who speak English with a British accent may sound very pleasant to some people whilst other people may find that same accent very unpleasant
- folks who speak English with an American accent may sound very pleasant to some people whilst other people may find that same accent very unpleasant
- some native English-speaking people find others who speak English with a French accent very pleasant to listen to whilst other people may find that same accent very unpleasant
- folks who speak English with a New York accent may sound very pleasant to some people but at the same time may sound very unpleasant to others
- folks who speak English with a Boston accent may sound very pleasant to some people but at the same time may sound very unpleasant to others

It could be the lifters. Depending on the mileage and care as far as frequent oil changes one o rmor eof your lifters may be making a tickign sound. As the oil pressure builds up..........say after a minute or two does it go away? Try this....just turn the engien on and let it on and see if the ticking goes away when it warms up. If not, then it is probably not the lifters. The lifters are hydraulic and they maintain a certain oil pressure and as they get old they gum up from infrequent oil changes and they lose some of their ability to hold the pressure so they tick.
What are the economic losses due to pollution?
The more polution there is, the more danger we are in due to global warming. Global Warming causes more storms, and with more storms more buildings and cars get damaged.
