Answer:

Friction

Step-by-step explanation:

Friction is a kind of force which is very useful in daily life while walking, means it has disadvantages as well as advantages. If the vehicle start then the friction will work between the tires and the road to make it move without slipping.

This friction is very useful it may be low or high it depend on the condition.

When a hard item will move on the soft item there will be a friction work will help in moving by avoiding any kind of slipping.

Therefore, when a rubber moves on the top of carpet, then there is a force which is working will help in moving without slipping, in physics we called this, frictional force.
