What simple machine reduces friction?
If I'm not mistaken, there is no machine that can reduce friction. The machine is intended to change the distance the input force is applied over or to multiply the output force. The moving parts of the machine will always increase friction. In order to reduce the extra friction (but not completely remove it), one would use a lubricant or reduce the roughness between two surfaces. Hope it helps.
What happens when you reduce friction on a machine?
less wear
How does between machine parts reduce friction?
some use magnets others use lubricants such as oil and grease
What is one way you can reduce friction?
You can reduce friction by using lubrication, like grease for bearing, sewing machine oil etc.
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.

How do you reduce the friction in a machine?
Oil it

Why oil and grease is applied between different parts of machine?
Oil and grease can reduce the amount of friction, making it easier for parts to slide against one another, and reducing the amount of heat produced.

Why it is important for you to reduce friction on compound machine?
Because too much friction can damage the simple machines that make up the compound machine.
Does overpolishing of surfaces increase the friction between them?
No it does not. It will actually reduce the friction between them.
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.
How does oil between machine reduce friction?
The oil helps slick the two surfaces so that the molecular surfaces become easier to slide on with less friction. Julia Blander :P
Why do you put oil in a machine?
To reduce friction, which is a resistance between two surfaces in contact. The points of contact between moving parts in a machine create heat (which is actually a desired effect in a flintstone, in which one strikes a flintstone with another rock to create heat as a means of starting a fire) and cause damage in their grinding against one another. Oil reduces the friction, which reduces the heat generated and the damage from the moving part surfaces grinding against one another; this reduction in friction is called lubrication.
