A car is a wheeled, self-powered motor vehicle used for transportation and a product of the automotive industry.

Most definitions of the term specify that cars are designed to run primarily on roads, to have seating for one to eight people, to typically have four wheels with tyres, and to be constructed principally for the transport of people rather than goods.

The year 1886 is regarded as the birth year of the modern car.

In that year, German inventor Karl Benz built the Benz Patent-Motorwagen.

Cars did not become widely available until the early 20th century.

One of the first cars that was accessible to the masses was the 1908 Model T, an American car manufactured by the Ford Motor Company.

Cars were rapidly adopted in the United States of America, where they replaced animal-drawn carriages and carts, but took much longer to be accepted in Western Europe and other parts of the world.

A vehicle (from) is a mobile machine that transports people or cargo.

Typical vehicles include wagons, bicycles, motor vehicles (motorcycles, cars, trucks, buses), railed vehicles (trains, trams), watercraft (ships, boats), aircraft and spacecraft.

A carpet is a textile floor covering typically consisting of an upper layer of pile attached to a backing.

The pile was traditionally made from wool, but, since the 20th century, synthetic fibers such as polypropylene, nylon or polyester are often used, as these fibers are less expensive than wool.

The pile usually consists of twisted tufts which are typically heat-treated to maintain their structure.

The term "carpet" is often used interchangeably with the term "rug", although the term "carpet" can be applied to a floor covering that covers an entire house, whereas a "rug" is generally no bigger than a single room, and traditionally does not even span from one wall to another, and is typically not even attached as part of the floor.

Soil is a mixture of minerals, organic matter, gases, liquids, and countless organisms that together support life on Earth.

Soil is a natural body called the pedosphere which has four important functions: it is a medium for plant growth; it is a means of water storage, supply and purification; it is a modifier of Earth's atmosphere; it is a habitat for organisms; all of which, in turn, modify the soil.

Snow pertains to frozen crystalline water throughout its life cycle, starting when it precipitates from clouds and accumulates on surfaces, then metamorphoses in place, and ultimately melts, slides or sublimates away.

Snowstorms organize and develop by feeding on sources of atmospheric moisture and cold air.

Snowflakes nucleate around particles in the atmosphere by attracting supercooled water droplets, which freeze in hexagonal-shaped crystals.

Snowflakes take on a variety of shapes, basic among these are platelets, needles, columns and rime.

As snow accumulates into a snowpack, it may blow into drifts.

Over time, accumulated snow metamorphoses, by sintering, sublimation and freeze-thaw.

Where the climate is cold enough for year-to-year accumulation, a glacier may form.

Otherwise, snow typically melts seasonally, causing runoff into streams and rivers and recharging groundwater.
