What else can I help you with?
Can be used to reduce friction?
Lubricant (Liquids, oils, grease, fats, water, graphite...)
What does a bit of oil reduce in science?
Oil is used to reduce friction.
How does oil reduce air friction?
Oil is mainly used to reduce friction between contacting surface, e.g., metal on metal - not to reduce air friction.
What are used to reduce friction?
Lubricants.
How can you reduce friction in water?
To reduce friction in water, you can use substances like lubricants or oils to create a layer between the water and the surface experiencing friction. You can also streamline the object's shape to minimize resistance and turbulence as it moves through the water. Another option is to reduce the object's speed, as faster movement creates more friction.
Does water reduce friction?
Water does reduce friction, as the liquid essentially lubricates the surface between the two objects. However, this only applies to affecting other friction. It has its own friction when objects move through a body of water.
What kinds of substance reduce friction?
Friction is the act of one surface rubbing against another. To reduce friction, use something that offers a small amount of friction. Smoother substances reduce friction. A way to reduce friction is to use something which offers a small amount of friction. For example, you could use something like plastic or glass. Water, most liquids and different types of oil reduce friction. Powder, oil and grease are used in between surfaces to also reduce friction.
What is a lubricant used for in a mechanism?
To reduce the coefficient of friction.
Why are bearings used in bicycles?
To reduce unwanted friction.
More friction between water and streambed will reduce the speed of flowing water.?
true
How can you reduce the effect of friction on the motion of a body?
by applying water on the floor.
Does oil reduce friction?
Yes, Oil forms a coating on the cylinder walls to reduce friction and is also used as a coolant to protect engine parts
