Does sand paper reduce friction?
sand paper increases friction, that is to say that it is harder to slide something on sand paper than it is on a smooth surface.
Is putting sand on ice a way to reduce friction?
Nope. It increasing friction so it is easier to pass icy roads
How can you reduce and increase friction?
Lubrication to reduce friction. To increase friction step on the brakes.
What are the ways of increasing and reducing friction?
TO REDUCE FRICTION: We can use fine powder on the carrom board to 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.

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.
What are the factors that reduce in case of friction?
the factors that reduce in case of friction are the velocity and acceleration.
What does a bit of oil reduce in science?
Oil is used to reduce friction.

Which has most friction - oil water or sand?
Sand.
What are the ways in which friction is reduce on aeroplane?
by giving it better aerodynamics you can reduce friction. but also the faster it goes the more friction it gets.
