They could have moved the block through water, which would be Fluid Friction, and makes it easier to move.

Can you think of another way the egyptians might have tried to reduce friction to move the heavy blocks?

Another way the Egyptians could have reduced friction to move the heavy blocks is by using lubricants such as water or animal fat on the ground or ramps. This would have helped to decrease the resistance between the blocks and the surface, making it easier to slide them into place. Additionally, they could have used rollers or sledges underneath the blocks to minimize friction as they were being moved.


What are two examples of situation where it is best to reduce friction?

It is best to reduce friction in machinery to improve efficiency and reduce wear and tear. Another situation is in sports like ice skating or skiing where reducing friction allows for smoother movement and faster speeds.


A way to reduce friction?

One way to reduce friction is to use lubricants such as oil or grease between the surfaces that are rubbing against each other. Another way is to use smoother surfaces or materials that are designed to have lower friction coefficients. Additionally, keeping surfaces clean and free of debris can help reduce friction.


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 did ancient Egyptian used to move stone?

By means of sledges hauled by gangs of slaves, water or oil was poured under the runners to reduce friction.


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.


Why must you not put oil on the brake blocks of a bicycle?

Oil makes things "slip", it is a lubricant, it reduces friction. Brake blocks work by "gripping" the wheel rim and stop the wheel turning using high friction between the block and the rim. Placing oil on the brake blocks will reduce their efficiency and if the rider can not stop quickly they may run into things.


Do wheels reduce friction?

yes because when they brake the friction is caused to reduce


What kind of friction can help reduce friction?

I never heard of friction reducing friction. You can reduce friction by using lubricants, as well as using wheels (as in ball bearings).


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.


Two ways to reduce friction are to use what?

Two ways to reduce friction are to use lubricants, such as oil or grease, to create a smooth surface between moving parts. Another way is to use ball bearings or rollers to minimize the surface area in contact and reduce friction.
