Is it possible for the frictional force between two surfaces that are extremely smooth and flat to increase?

Yes the application of a load normal to the plane of the smooth flat surfaces will increase the friction between the surfaces.

What happens to the magnitude of frictional force when two surfaces are pressed hard?
In my opinion , frictional force will increase
When do the frictional forces between two surfaces increase?
As they come into contact so tight friction would increase As roughness increases frictional force too increases.
Why the frictional force between two surfaces increases if the force pushing the surfaces togehter increases?
an increase in uk (apex)
How does weight and surface area affect the frictional force?
As mass increases Surfaces area increase so the gravitational force increase so the friction increase...............
What frictional force?
Frictional force is the force that opposes motion between two surfaces.
What are two ways you can increase the frictional force between two objects?
1. Increase the normal reaction acting on the objects by pressing them together. 2. Increase the coarse nature of the surfaces so that the coefficient of friction is also increased.
What two factors that affect the amount of friction between two surfaces?
The magnitude of the frictional force is directly proprotional to the normal reaction between the two surfaces.(2)Magnitude of the frictional force is independent of shape and area of the surfaces
Does then frictional force depend on the type of surfaces in contact?
Yes. Different materials and different surface structures affect the frictional force.
How can you increase the frictional force between two surfaces?
The friction between two surfaces can be increased by some or all of the following - Increase the total area of direct contact between the two materials; Decrease minute deviations from direct contact of the materials; Use a superconductor as a "mortar"; Add pressure, weight, or additional mass force pressing down on the surfaces Scuffing or abrasion of smooth surfaces; Application of a "sticky" substance.
Explain why the frictional force between two surfaces increases?
There are basically two ways to increase friction between two surfaces, which are, make them rougher (increased co-efficient of friction) or press them together with greater pressure. In either case, you are increasing the interaction between irregularities on the surfaces. Completely smooth surfaces would, in theory, be frictionless.
What are the 2 factors that affect the frictional force between 2 surfaces?
velocity and texture
Is frictions force?
Frictional force is the force that opposes motion between two surfaces.
