Final answer:

The force of static friction and gravity influence a car's movement downhill, impacting acceleration and control.


Explanation:

Friction force plays a crucial role when a car is traveling downhill. When not controlled properly, the car may accelerate on its own due to gravity's influence. To prevent skidding, the force of static friction must be considered, with the wheels aligned in a way that allows for optimal control.
