Air rushing against an airplane is an example of friction?
Yes, air rushing against an airplane is an example of friction. This force is called drag. It reduces the speed of the plane.
Why does grass have high friction?
Grass is rough, it stood tall from ground against the motion moving in horizontal plane. What that act against the motion is friction.
Can you see friction?
yes,you can see friction. think of when a plane is about to break the speed of sound, ok now as the plane reaches speeds of over 700 mph you start to see a white circle around it, that is the air rubbing against the plane so yes you can see friction
Is it true that frictional force on a sliding body on a plane is always directed at the angle of friction to the normal?
The frictional force on a sliding body on a plane will be acting parallel to the plane against the motion of the body. But the magnitude of the (kinetic) friction force is proportional to the weight component normal to the plane. The weight component parallel to the plane is the force that tends to slide the body down the inclined plane. When the sliding body has acquire steady velocity, the friction force is equal to the body's sliding force.
Which surface gives the least friction?
Plane surface with negligible friction.

What is the friction on a flying plane?
The friction on the plane is the friction produced due to air.

Give an example of fluid friction?
A plane moving through air. Air is causing friction, A boat moving through water .Water causes friction.
What is a inclined plane and example?
An example of an inclined plane is a ramp, slanted road, or a slide. An inclined plane is a surface that is at an angle against a horizontal surface.
How are friction notuseful?
Friction is not useful when ever we do not want it. Examples would be when two materials are rubbing against one another. The friction of ropes in pulleys eventually causes wear on both; friction of shoes or straps against the body causes blisters; friction airplanes travelling through the air - friction causes the plane to get hot; the moving parts of an engine get hot from friction...

Is the coefficient of friction on a horizontal plane between to substances the same as the coefficient of friction on the incline plane?
POMBO
What is angle of friction?
The angle of friction is defined as the angle of a plane where a body placed on the plane will start to slide.
Which surface gives the least friction?
Plane surface with negligible friction.
Friction can stop some objects working well give one example?
A rolling boll on a plane surface will stop after some distance due to friction.
