When a car moves on a road, then the bottommost point is always at rest relative to the ground at that particular instant and since friction only opposes relative motion between two bodies then according to this there should be no friction acting on the bottommost point of the wheel. If this is the case then according to Newton's 1st law, the car should continue to move forever unless brakes are applied. But in reality this doesn't happen & as the accelerator is released the car moves for sometime & ultimately stops even though no brakes are applied. How is this possible?
