Does the frictional force depend on the area of surface contact?
No. Frictional force is independant of surface area.
Will frictional force depends on mass and density?
Frictional force depends on the contact force and on the coefficient of friction. The coefficient of friction depends on the types of materials in contact; the contact force may depend on mass, if it is caused by gravity.
What is the force opposes the sliding motion of 2 surfaces in contact?
Friction. Kinetic friction, to be precise.
What frictional force?
Frictional force is the force that opposes motion between two surfaces.
Describe two ways to change the frictional force between two sold surfaces?
1 . By polishing the surfaces in contact 2 . By lubricating the surfaces in contact with oil or grease .

What kind of force is friction?
Frictional force is a contact force which opposes the relative motion. It is directly proportional to the normal reaction between the 2 surfaces.
Does the nature of surface in contact influence friction force?
Yes. Roughly speaking, smooth surfaces tend to have less frictional force.
What happens to the magnitude of frictional force when two surfaces are pressed hard?
In my opinion , frictional force will increase
When do the frictional forces between two surfaces increase?
As they come into contact so tight friction would increase As roughness increases frictional force too increases.
What does the force of friction between two objects in contact depend on?
The types of materials involved, any third party (like sand or grease), the surface finish of the two objects where they contact, the temperature of the interfacing surfaces, and the normal force.
Does the frictional force depend on the type of surface in contact?
Yes. Different substances have a different coefficient of friction.
Is frictions force?
Frictional force is the force that opposes motion between two surfaces.
