Phenomenon in which the tyres of a road vehicle cease to make direct contact with the road surface, owing to the presence of a thin film of water. As a result, the vehicle can go out of control, particularly if the steered wheels are involved.

What else can I help you with?
When a car loses contact wirh pavement abd rides in watet is?
It is aquaplaning.
What factors contribute to the likelihood of aquaplaning?
Water, speed, tire pressure, weak struts, driver...
Why are there grooves on tires?
So the water you drive through will be channelled through the grooves to prevent aquaplaning.
When the vehicle loses contact with the pavement and rides on a thin layer of water is?
It is known as aquaplaning.
What actors and actresses appeared in Aquaplaning - 1987?

What is hyroplaning?
Hydroplaning or aquaplaning by a road vehicle occurs when a layer of water builds between the rubber tires of the vehicle and the road surface
What is aquaplaning when driving?
you may mean hydroplaning, and it refers to the times were your car "skis" over the water causing you to have no control over anything your car does.
What is it called when water forms a wedge under a tire causing it to lose traction?
When water forms a wedge under a tire, causing it to lose traction, it is referred to as "aquaplaning" or "hydroplaning." This phenomenon occurs when a layer of water builds up between the tire and the road surface, preventing the tire from making contact with the road and resulting in a loss of control. Aquaplaning is most likely to occur at higher speeds and in conditions of heavy rain.
What is the reason for tire grooves?
Tire grooves channel and disperse the water on wet roads. If it weren't for grooves, your tires would be 'aquaplaning' on every patch of water, and not gripping the surface.
Is the phenomenon where your vehicle actually rides on top of water on the road.?
It is known as Aquaplaning or hydroplaning. It is when there is a build of a layer of water between the wheels of the vehicle and the road surface.
Why is driving in water dangerous?
Water reduces the connection your tires make with the road which heightens the risk of skidding or 'aquaplaning', plus you risk damages your car's engine. Deeper water can have a strong enough current to sweep your car away.
How do you reduce the friction between two sufaces?
Use a lubricant between the two surfaces - oil, grease, water (aquaplaning for example), ice (slipping over on ice), air (hovercraft for example), magnet levitation (the Japanese maglev train for example).
