Car

1997 Jeep Wrangler TJ

A classic version of the famous Jeep off-roader sold in the late 1990s and early 2000s. It is famous for bringing back the traditional round headlights (after a period of square ones) and being much more comfortable to drive on normal roads than older Jeeps.

Term

coefficient of friction

A scientific measurement of how 'grippy' or slippery two surfaces are when they rub against each other. For cars, a higher number means the tires grip the road better, while a lower number (like on ice) means the car will slide easily.
