Car tyres are made so that they increase friction in order that they have good grip on the road

Friction is the reason brakes work on cars, the brake pads push down onto the rotors, causing the friction to slow the wheels. The energy of the moving car is converted by the brakes ("friction") into heat. This is why heavy breaking causes the breaks to heat up. The break pedal controls the amount of friction by determining how much force is applied to push the rotors and pads together.

How does a scrap heap magnet work?

A Scrap Heat Magnet is a magnet that is used to transport metal scrap in a junkyard. It can only lift things that are magnetic. The scrap heap magnet is basically a giant electromagnet that is powered by a very large battery. It works the same way an ordinary electromagnet works. Thick insulated copper wire is wound around a soft iron core. The magnetic power of an electromagnet depends upon the current and the number of turns in the coil. The copper wire can withstand very strong currents and a large number of turns in the coil create a very strong magnetic field. When the current passes it becomes very strong and attracts all the magnetic materials in the scrap.
