is it desirable to have less friction in tyres or more of it?
Answers
Answer:
The coefficient of friction is a measure for how much friction a material or texture provides. This coefficient is useful to scientists when developing new materials for tyres and road surfaces, but for the average driver it's enough to conclude that high friction is desirable – it keeps us steadily on the road.
In tyres of a car more friction is desirable while in other cases, friction reduces the effectiveness of machines. Without friction, you would not be able to walk, the wheels on a vehicle would have no grip on a road surfacing and the vehicle would not be able to move forward.

coefficient of friction is important
How far a vehicle will slide and how slippery the road is, is determined by the coefficient of friction.
Different materials and textures provide different friction. The coefficient of friction is a measure for how much friction a material or texture provides.
