What is an example of increasing friction intentionally?

well immediatly when i hear the word friction i think of tires and u need to add something to make it intentionally go faster so an example would be " adding grease to gears on a bike." Heather - 14 - MI ^^^ this is decreasing friction. Adding friction would be like throwing sand on a icy driveway so you don't slide..


What as an example of increasing friction intentionally?

assuming that you're asking a multiple choice question, waxing skis reduces friction so that you can move faster on the snow. grease and oil are used as lubricants. they reduce friction in most instances. throwing sand on an icy driveway would increase friction between a cars tires and the ice. a good rule of thumb is that most liquids work as lubricants, most gritty or solid stuff works to increase friction, and powder can do either.

How is a potter throwing clay an example of the force of friction at work?

Potters throwing clay on a potter's wheel use the forces of physics to shape the clay as it spins.


Why speed decreases in denser medium and increases in rare medium?

The speed depends on many factors, and one of the factor is friction. In denser medium (WATER) friction is more so speed is less, while in free space and vacuum friction is less speed is more, speed and friction is inversely proportional to each other.so, speed decreases in denser medium than in rare medium. speed α 1/friction So, automobiles like cars are applied a lubricant on its outer surface which decreases the friction and move with more speed. Now automobile companies working to reduce friction which helps to enhance speed. If we go in depth in this topic friction is the major criteria that effect the speed. we can run faster in free space(rarer medium) than in water(denser medium) i.e.,water is in liquid state the water molecules are closely packed so it has more defensive power i.e., more friction, While in free space the air molecules are lightly packed so it has less friction. In this way we can prove that body moves faster in rarer medium than in denser medium. Eg: throwing a ball in water travels less distances than compared a ball throwing in free space

What could be wrong when you have shoulder pain while throwing a softball?

because a dodgeball is so light has no friction when you're throwing.


How does friction apply to softball?

anything that has contact with the ground uses friction...pushing of the ground when running, batting, or throwing definitely uses friction. The grip on the ball when pitching and throwing has friction as well.


How do you get past the people throwing trash at you in Wimpy wonderland?

What the bad kids on Whirley Street are throwing is snowballs. You don't have to get past them, only to the doorway where the snow shovel is. You will need it to clear Gramma's driveway (far left, the completely opposite side of the island).


How can you increase the amount of kinetic energy in a small ball of clay you are throwing at a person?

you can increase the amount of kinetic energy by increasing the mass and the velocity..


Does throwing up affect blood alcohol content?

Throwing up will not reduce your current blood alcohol percentage, but if there is unabsorbed alcohol in your stomach, throwing up can prevent your blood alcohol percentage from increasing through additional absorption. Metabolism and time is the only way to reduce your blood alcohol percentage.
