In terms of heat, quite a bit actually. In racing situations, tires can reach temperatures of over 200*.

Is there a lot of friction on an accelerating car?
Absolutely, as there is air resistance, the stickiness of the car's wheels, and the friction of the axles turning the wheels.
How does the size and shape of wheels affects the speed of a mousetrap powered toy car?
It is depended on the shape of the wheels to determine how much friction is applied.
What kind of friction is acting on the wheels when a car skids on ice?
cold friction
Why does car wheels get hot after driving?
Friction from the road heating the tires and transferring to the wheels and the brakes friction heating the wheel its self and/or the rims.
What force causes car wheels to get hot?
friction, dah!
Why could cars not move without friction?
When the wheels of a car turn, friction causes the wheels to push back on the road, which in turn causes the road to push the car forward. Without friction the wheels would just spin in place. You can sometimes see this occur on icy roads, where there is very little friction.
Where does the friction oppose motion on a roller coaster car?
between the wheels of the car and the track
Name two kinds of friction affecting the mouse trap car?
The wheels on the ground create friction
What is the Force engine provides the wheels of the car equation?
Thrust or friction
What is one example of rolling kinetic friction?
Anything with wheels, such as a car, would be an example of use of rolling kinetic friction.
How wheels work on a car?
Wheels and axles help reduce friction and allow a heavy objects like a car to move around easily.
Why is friction necessary to make a car move?
Because if there is no friction between the wheels and the asphalt the car would simply spin out. Unable to move at all on a friction-less surface. In fact, it's so important racecars have upsidedown wings to push the car into the ground to get better friction. Which when we're talking about car wheels is also called traction.
