General Awareness - Test 2 - Question 2

When a moving car encounters a patch of ice the brakes are applied. Why is it desirable to keep the wheels rolling on the ice without locking up?

Detailed Solution for General Awareness - Test 2 - Question 2

When a tire is able to roll, it has vastly less resistance to motion in the direction of rotation than it does in any other direction. Static friction exists if the wheels keep rolling on the ice without locking up, resulting in maximum braking force. However, if the wheels lock up then kinetic friction takes over since there is relative slipping between wheel and ice. This reduces the braking force and the car takes longer to stop.
