Why is friction is so important?

without friction you could be able to stay in one position

What happens if there were no friction?

Without friction, objects would have no resistance, therefor loose no energy as a result. For example, without friction a ball could roll up and down a half-pipe continusily without loosing hight.


Does friction and motion occur at the same time?

Yes, Theres no way that there could be friction without the object moving


Is friction usefull in playgrounds?

Friction is fascinating because in so many situations we try to reduce friction, but friction is a necessary force, without which everything would be impossible. Without friction we would all be flat on the floor without any methods of directing our motion. We would randomly collide with things and then continuing moving in another direction. Without friction the slide at the playground would be really fast, but you could never climb the ladder to get on it. The swings would be useless since no one could get into them. So friction is necessary for playgrounds.

What happens to friction when you try to get rid of it?

Friction will reduce when you try to get rid of it. But understand that it is impossible to eliminate friction. A world without friction would not function. The wheels on a car would spin in place, without going anywhere. If you tried to take a step forward, you would fall over, and then be unable to get up. Friction is what makes the world operate when it comes to transportation. --AN AP PHYSICS STUDENT


What would happen if there was no such thing as friction?

If there was no friction then we could not walk, we would keep slipping. Nothing would be steady on the ground, many things would be just sliding and sliding. Nothing would exist in the way they do now. You could not pick up a glass with a drink in it, you could not hold a pencil, a leaf, a spear, or your cellphone, and you could not turn a page. It seems unlikely that we could exist at all.

NO friction


How can you get friction?

Friction happened when two surfaces rub against each other, although the two surfaces seem smooth but microscopicallythey're surface are rough. Without friction you could slip and fall when you walk. Friction slows down moving object and could also stop a moving object.
