I hope I'm posting this in the right spot, but I've been wondering this for a while now and figured this would be the best place to ask...
I know that rust is an process involving electricity and rust forms on the negatively charged anode right?
If that's the case, since a car is on rubber tires and is not grounded to the earth, would rust slow down if when the car is parked, it were grounded to the Earth so it was at it's lowest electric potential?
(i'm going to school for mechanical engineering and probably won't do much more with electricity that what I've learned this year (which isn't much))
If anyone could shed some light on whether or not this would work it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
