Entropy is a measure of disorder. Heat is a very low order form of energy. Friction produces heat energy and hence entropy tends to increase due to friction.

Does wax increase or decrease FRICTION?
Actually, waxing skis increases friction. Wax is not slippery. If you wanted less friction you could oil your skis.
When does friction decrease?
Friction will decrease if the coefficient of friction decreases. This can be caused by having a smother surface up to a point. (When two surface are TOO smooth the friction actually increases due to molecular attraction.)
How do you increase the amount of current created by a generator?
You can use a transformer to increase the current. Note that this will also decrease the voltage. The total energy will not increase; it will decrease slightly, due to losses in the transformer.
If you change the length of the string will it make the frequency increase or decrease?
increase the length of the string means decrease the tension in the string, therefore as the tension decreases the frequency will drop due to loosen of the string.
Why the work output is always less than the work input?
Except for a technical joke about electric heaters (all the losses are heat) some energy is always lost due to friction (or its equivalent), The word is entropy.
Does friction decrease or increase?
Wax, due to it filling the pores that cause friction will reduce friction.

Which force decrease motion due to enteraction between two surface?
Friction.
Due to heat would the resistance in non-ohmic material decrease or increase?
Increase
Does the amount of water on planet earth increase or decrease?
Increase Due to melting polar caps
What types of weather cause friction on surfaces to decrease?
Colder temperatures can cause friction on surfaces to decrease as it can make surfaces more smooth and slippery. Rain or wet conditions can also reduce friction due to the presence of moisture on the surface. Additionally, icy or frosty conditions can lead to a decrease in friction as the ice or frost can create a slippery surface.

Why does the terminal voltage increase in leading load?
due to decrease in power factor
How is a boiled egg in a higher state of disorder than an unboiled egg?
Boiled egg is due to absorption of heat and heat supplied to a system always results in increase in ''Entropy'' Increased Entropy means greater disorder.
Why the solubility of calcium chromate decreases with increase in temperature?
due to the presencec of chromium metal as temprature increase solubility decrease
Is entropy of water is higher than entropy of ice?
Entropy of water is higher than ice due randomness in the water molecule
