How does friction affect movment?

friction opposes the force causing the body to move. fiction is the reason why you are unable push very heavy objects on normal surfaces. if an object is on a truly frictionless surface, you will be able to push it left to right, side to side regardless of how heavy it is.

How would a reduction in friction in a stream channel affect the streams velocity?

As water in the stream channel flows, it encounters friction; the friction slows the forward movement. The shape,size, and roughness affect the amount of friction. High friction slows the stream significantly.
