Dr. Evil asked:


A shear-thickening material is what you get when you mix cornstarch with water. It forms that colloid material. I need to find out what material in cars is shear thickening. Does anyone that knows a lot about cars know what part of the car is like this?
I just need to know this for biology class. It’s for extra credit.
