By any of the following Put rough surface stickers (can be bought) on the surfaces. Increase the surface area of contact ( a cuboid on it's side instead of on it's smaller side) And maybe put a carpet or rough surface between it ( it works reverse of the ball bearings)

Is it true that weight affects the amount of friction between the object and a surface?
Yes. Weight, being a force perpendicular to the surface, affects the magnitude of the friction, but not the friction coefficient.
How can you increase the magnitude of friction between two surfaces?

What is the effect of surface area on friction?
The increase in One increases the Other. What alters the friction effects between Surfaces is another matter.
Does friction increase when the surface is smoother?
yes
What kind of surface increase friction?
energy
Why tires have grooves on their surface?
To increase friction
Does surface type affect the force of friction?
Surface types can affect the force of friction because as the surface gets rough and rougher it has more friction and smooth surface has less friction. if we compare the affect of friction force on a ice and road. Road is much more rough than the ice chunk and if we slide a ice hockey puck on each of the surfaces, we get that smoother surfaces has less friction.
Does surface area have an effect on friction?
Yes greater the surface area coming into contact friction would increase
What factors influence the magnitude of sliding friction?
weight ,roughness of the surface and applied force
What is the science behind friction?
Friction is a force of resistance between to surfaces/layers/etc sliding together. Friction converts kinetic energy into heat if the surface is rough then the friction increase did u know that.
What are some material that increase friction between two objects?
A substance which has hard surface will have more frictional properties
Does magnetism affects friction?
Yes, magnetism is a force. Any force applied to an object will either increase or decrease the friction between that object and an adjacent surface.
