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.
Does sand reduce friction?
No, sand does not reduce friction but increase friction.
More friction between water and streambed will reduce the speed of flowing water?
true
Can water stop friction?
Normally you can't stop friction alltogether, but water can certainly reduce friction considerably. Did you ever slip on a wet floor? This is because the friction is much less than usual.
How can you reduce and increase friction?
Lubrication to reduce friction. To increase friction step on the brakes.
Can water be used to reduce friction?
yes.
Does water reduce friction?
Water does reduce friction, as the liquid essentially lubricates the surface between the two objects. However, this only applies to affecting other friction. It has its own friction when objects move through a body of water.

How can you reduce the effect of friction on the motion of a body?
by applying water on the floor.

Some ways to reduce friction are by using or applying what?
There are a few ways to reduce friction. For example one can apply water or oil to the surfaces that are rubbing together.
Do wheels reduce friction?
yes because when they brake the friction is caused to reduce
Can be used to reduce friction?
Lubricant (Liquids, oils, grease, fats, water, graphite...)
