| Abstract | The purpose of this experiment was to find out which common household materials provide the most traction on ice. Slippery outdoor steps can increase the risk of falls, especially for seniors. By comparing how different materials affect slipping, this project aimed to identify practical and accessible ways to improve safety during winter. |
