Question:
the friction force between two surfaces in contact depends on the normalforce between the surfaces and the coefficient of friction. Suppose that your car is parked on a snow-covered and icy road and you are tryingto pull away from the parked spot to start driving. You press the gas pedal but thetires only spin on top of the snow and ice. Which of the following strategies will help your car to grip the surface better? Press both the gas pedal and the brake pedal at once. Wait until the tires cool down because they will grip better when cold.Increase the weight of the car by adding as many items or passengers aspossible Decrease the weight of the car by removing as many items or passengers aspossible
