Friction is more on irregular surfaces.
The lubricant fills the irregularities and makes the surface smooth and thus reduces friction.
What a lubrication does is reduce the friction by forming a smoothe layer in between the two surfaces.
Lubricants also reduce heat :P Hope That Helped :)
By eliminating solid-solid sliding contact. A solid is defined as a material that can support shear (lateral force). When two solids come into contact, imperfections in the surface interferer with each other and resist slide by their shear strength. Liquids or macroscopic balls of graphite (dry lubricant) flow or roll to reduce shear forces the result in friction's Lubricants can reduce the corrosion particles and reduce wear and tear with the help of molecular participles in lubricant oil.

What do lubricants do to friction by replacing sliding friction with fluid friction?
Lubricants reduce friction by replacing sliding friction with fluid friction.
What are used to reduce friction?
Lubricants.
Lubricants do what to friction by replacing sliding friction with fluid friction?
the correction option is true :)
What is the name of liquids used to reduce friction?
Lubricants.
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).
What do you use to reduce friction?
you can use some anti-friction like lubricants (oil,gas).
What is Lubricants blank friction by replacing sliding friction with fluid friction?
reduce shelbyjohnson
Can we reduce friction if possible suggest some methods?
That's what lubricants are for.
Name some ways to reduce friction?
lubricants - 10W30, WD40
How can you overcome friction?
You can't. You can reduce it with lubricants, polishing surfaces, & bearings.
Substances used to reduce friction?
Lubricants are used to reduce friction, as well as grinding the surfaces in contact until they are very smooth.
Why do wheel reduce the force of friction?
Wheels reduces the friction because to improve the speed of the machines. friction can be reduced with the help of the lubricants.
