For something to accelerate or go faster, a force needs to be applied to it. When you walk, your shoe wants to slide on the sidewalk, but the friction from the tiny bumps on both surfaces creates resistance that prevents this, and you move forward. The sidewalk friction is actually pushing back on your shoe so you accelerate forward. Hope that helps.

Does Friction makes things go faster.?
No.
Does more friction make an object go faster or slower?
Friction will cause objects to slow down.
How can the friction between two objects be decreased?
Make the force go faster.
How does the force of friction for a sliding object vary with speed?
The friction can make you slow down , but if you lose friction you will go at a faster rate of speed
What surfaces would make a toy car go down a ramp faster?
You will need a very smooth surface that has less friction.
Does Friction makes things go faster.?
No.

What can make your balloon powered car go faster?
use bigger wheels and use less friction on the ground make it weigh less
Why do some objects go faster on different surfaces?
Friction
How do different ramps affect the movement of a toy car?
There are 2 ways that different ramps will alter the movement of a toy car. The material of the ramp will affect the friction (grip) of the car, if the friction is more ON THE WHEELS, it will go faster. If the air friction, or resistance is greater, it will go slower. Also, the height of the 'starting end' of the ramp will make the car go faster becase momentum buils up quicker, so the car will go faster. Hope this was helpfull!
Do you want more or less fluid friction while swimming?
You want less friction. Then you will go faster.
What surfaces would make a toy car go down a ramp faster?
You will need a very smooth surface that has less friction.
Why do snow borders wax their skies?
To reduce friction, so they go faster.
Why does less friction cause cars to go faster and longer?
Friction is force that opposes an objects motion. Therefore, the less friction the object encounters, the less opposition it will have to its direction of travel. The less opposition it has, the faster it may go. Theoretically, a moving object that encounters no friction will continue to travel at a constant rate for EVER.
