In which year friction invented?

Friction wasn't invented, it is an interaction between objects : "Friction is the force resisting the relative lateral motion of two solid surfaces in contact, or a solid surface in contact with a fluid"


When is friction generated?

Anytime that the surface of two materials are in contact. There does not have to be motion to have friction.


What are the reasons for burning in the soles?

What ia a friction?

* The rubbing of one object or surface against another. * Conflict, as between persons having dissimilar ideas or interests. * A force that resists the relative motion or tendency to such motion of two bodies in contact.


Can you give a conclusion about friction?

What is friction?

Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other. There are several types of friction: Dry friction is a force that opposes the relative lateral motion of two solid surfaces in contact.


How can friction can help the cause of motion in certain situation?

The direction of friction is always opposite to the direction of relative motion of two bodies in contact.For example :in rolling motion of sphere the relative motion of the sphere (at the point of contact between sphere and ground)with respect ground is backwards, and hence friction acts in forward direction ,there by causing motion .
