Friction does not speed up objects. In fact, it acts in the opposite way—it resists the motion of objects or particles in contact with each other. However, in certain situations, friction can help to stabilize or control the speed of an object.

Truefalse can friction slow things down?

true. Friction DOES slow things down. In fact, if there was no friction once something started moving it wouldn't be able to stop Friction can slow the things down. It's true.

How does friction affect objects?

2 ways:it heats up the object as it skids or speeds along, often causing the object to melt slightly or completely.it slows the object down due to gravity.


How does magnetic friction affect the movement of objects?

Magnetic friction can either attract or repel objects, which can slow down or speed up their movement. This friction is caused by the interaction between magnetic fields and the objects, influencing their motion.


Friction is a force that speed's up motion between two surfaces that are in contact?

no. it is the opposite. friction is the force that slows down things in motion in contact with each other.


What is accelerated but not used up?

Friction is a force that accelerates objects by opposing their motion, but it does not use up the objects themselves.


What usually burn up the Earth's atmosphere?

Meteors and other objects entering Earth's atmosphere burn up due to friction with air molecules at high speeds, creating heat and light. This process is known as atmospheric entry or ablation.


Can speed affect friction force?

Actually, friction does depend on velocity. If you stop your car you have to ease up on the brakes as you slow down because friction increases as you slow down. This effect has been observed for objects travelling at bullet velocities. Friction decrease as speed increases.

What are things that burn up in Earths atmosph ere?

Objects like meteors, spacecraft upon re-entry, and volatile gases can burn up in Earth's atmosphere due to the intense heat and friction produced as they travel through the air at high speeds.
