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.
Why do people sometime want to reduce friction?
Depending on the context depends on the reason. The usual reason is usually to reduce the amount of energy something needs to move.
Does sand reduce friction?
No, sand does not reduce friction but increase friction.
How can you reduce and increase friction?
Lubrication to reduce friction. To increase friction step on the brakes.
How can you reduce the amount of friction on moving parts?
all you have to do is add something slippery e.g oil

Is friction something you want to reduce?
no, actually many inventions or things work on the basis of friction for example a pen it works on the basis of friction.Anything that would once be in motion would never stop.
What is the name for liquid that reduce friction?
Lubricant- something that that lubricates.
Does sand reduce friction?
No, sand does not reduce friction but increase friction.
How can you reduce and increase friction?
Lubrication to reduce friction. To increase friction step on the brakes.
How do cyclists reduce friction in the velodrome?
Professional bike riders want to reduce friction, because friction is a force of two objects rubbing up against each other, therefore slowing you down.
How can you reduce the amount of friction on moving parts?
all you have to do is add something slippery e.g oil
Is friction always something we want reduce?
NO!You very much need to increase friction between car tires and the road surface in winter. Accumulated snow and ice can already reduce friction there to the point that stopping and steering the car becomes impossible leading to many severe and occasionally fatal accidents.Vehicle brakes also need as much friction as possible to efficiently stop the vehicle when needed.Sandpaper and other abrasives depend on friction to smooth and clean surfaces.etc.
Do wheels reduce friction?
yes because when they brake the friction is caused to reduce
Does sand paper reduce friction?
sand paper increases friction, that is to say that it is harder to slide something on sand paper than it is on a smooth surface.
What are the ways of increasing and reducing friction?
TO REDUCE FRICTION: We can use fine powder on the carrom board to reduce friction
