Stationary in what frame of referenceIt's the part of the tyre thats in contact with the road. It has to be stationary to propel the car forward,if not it would result in wheel spin.

Stationary whilst in contact with the road, to exaggerate it,if you take a track laying vehicle (tank) the track is constantly moving on the tank until it comes in contact with the ground,then its stationary until the tank has moved its entire length over it,its then picked up by the rear sprocket and starts its rotation again.Stationary in what frame of reference
Sorry BTG, I wasn't trying to mislead you,but i'm not too sure this is covered by Newtons Laws. I think the relevant word in this is 'traction' where the corresponding surfaces do or don't allow this to occur.If only you’d confirmed we were in Newtonian physics I would definitely have got that!(not)
Nice
Reintroduced this cos it's gone off the page - out of sight, out of mind. Google it if you want to but the Welsh connection is associated with the Amman Valley.Here's a catchy whistling tune from the soundtrack of Kill Bill Vol 1. WITHOUT googling, can anyone tell me the very Welsh connection to it?
QuoteJF , please don’t take everything I write at face value.
I guess there's no takers for this then. The clue is where it says 'Twisted Nerve'. This whistling song was called Georgie's tune and first heard in the 60s movie Twisted Nerve, a psychological thriller. Hywel Bennett played Georgie. Used to bump into Hywel quite often in The Cross, Ammanford (then owned by friends of mine). 'Bump' quite literally because he was often pissed but tidy enough guy, though.Reintroduced this cos it's gone off the page - out of sight, out of mind.

Well done, BTG. They are all HETERONYMS (at least two definitions which change when the word is pronounced differently).I can't recall the technical name, maybe homonyms, but they all have two different meanings although looking the same.
