Who will benefit from a nano car????

Using the parts inside a single molecule, scientists have constructed the world's smallest car. The nanocar consists of a chassis and axles made of well-defined organic groups with pivoting suspension and freely rotating axles. The wheels are buckyballs, spheres of pure carbon containing 60 atoms apiece. The four buckyball wheels that were used in the original version of the nanocar drained energy from the motor and were replaced with spherical molecules of carbon, hydrogen and boron called p-carborane. The entire car measures just 3-4 nanometers across, making it slightly wider than a strand of DNA. A human hair, by comparison, is about 80,000 nanometers in diameter.



Who will benefit from a nano car????

Small clowns-jk



A few areas will benefit



Physics will see some information on how physics works at such a small scale



Medicine(in the future)- These nano cars could be the model that future nano-bots can be based off of to repair cells at a atomic level, or alter other things in the body like protein production. kind of like a built in gene therapy. Or deliver drugs when needed



electronics- I am going out on a limb here but I could say self repairing computers
