How does spikes help climb on hard ice?

The spikes dig into ice and allow the climber to involve his feet on the slippery ice. Hard ice may require more force to 'dig' into, but spikes help prevent snow buildup, and provide stability and traction on an otherwise frictionless surface.


Can frictionless surface exist?

No.


Why does a ice-hockey puck have less friction than a ball rolling on the ground?

Ice has a much smoother surface than the surface of the ground, therefore there is less friction acting on the hockey puck compared to a ball rolling on the ground. Ice is nearly a frictionless surface.


Is there any frictionless train?

No there is always a resistive force such as air resistance. The closest frictionless train is the japanese magnetic train which has no friction on the track.

Does light have friction?

All physical substances so far known have a coefficient of friction. In the cases of some substances (wet ice or teflon, for example) this may be quite low, but there are no truly frictionless surfaces.
