- Friction: The child learned about the importance of friction in keeping the tire in place while changing it.
- Gravity: The child learned about the effects of gravity on the car and the tire.
- Force: The child learned about the force required to loosen and tighten the lug nuts.
- Mechanical advantage: The child learned about using a tire iron to increase the mechanical advantage and make it easier to loosen the lug nuts.
- Torque: The child learned about the importance of applying the correct amount of torque when tightening the lug nuts.
- Pressure: The child learned about the importance of checking the tire pressure and ensuring it is at the correct level.
Continued development related to this activity could include learning more about the physics of cars and how they work, exploring the different types of tires and their properties, and practicing changing a tire in different weather conditions or on different types of terrain.
