Friction is one force causes a ball to roll downhill. The smaller the static friction coefficient, the more liable the ball will be to skidding instead of rolling. Static friction is involved in a ball rolling downhill.

What is the strongest type of friction?

There are four types of friction: Fluid Friction (The friction caused by falling through air or water, or any other liquid etc), rolling friction (Like a ball rolling across the floor), static friction (The force it takes to begin something's movement), and sliding friction(Like pushing a box across the floor). In order of strongest to weakest it's Static, Sliding, Rolling, Fluid.

What are examples of harmful friction in tennis?

There are several types of friction that influence spin of the ball in tennis. The sliding friction between the ball and the strings, the static friction between the ball and the strings at the grip phase, the static friction between the main and the cross strings, and the sliding friction between the strings.

Is friction acting on a body which is in pure rolling?

yes there is still alittle friction on a ball that is in pure rolling because there is still interaction between the atoms that contact the surface of the ball and the floor
