Rubbing two things together. Even if you're just sliding across a carpet, that's friction too.

Is friction increased by lubrication?
No, the converse is true.
What happened to the coefficients of friction as the weight increased?
Nothing. The coefficient of friction is constant, as it is dependent on the surfaces that are interacting. Normal force increases as an objects mass increases (Be careful with the word "weight", as it denotes the effect of gravity) in a constant gravitational field. This normal force is what causes an increase in friction.
What are the main causes of friction?
the main causes of friction are molecular adhesion,surface roughness,and the plowing effect.
What causes static?
friction
Does static friction or rolling friction causes a car tire to turn on the road?
static friction
How friction increased?
With increased surface areas in contact, friction increases.
What happens to friction when normal reaction is increased 2 times?
The friction will also double as Friction= (friction coefficient)(normal reaction)
How can friction be increased?
There are different ways through which helpful friction be increased. The easiest way is using coarser or rougher surface to increase resistance.
What are ways friction can be increased?
Speed it up!

Why will a container of gas explode if it is heated?
heat causes pressure, pressure causes friction, friction causes spark, spark causes KABOOM! all in a split second
What science is in baseball?
physics, physics, physics. the laws of phisics are extremly importent in base ball. when you throw a baseball, the outward force , of your hand, propels the ball at a tremendous speed, if you you're a good pitcher. a curve ball is all science. in a curve ball, the pitcher throws a ball in such a way to spin the ball like a top. this spinning causes increased friction with the air on one side and reduced friction on the other. the increased friction also causes increased pressure. the pressurizzed air wants to go the lower pressure on the other side, which forces the ball to the left or right
Does static friction or rolling friction causes a car tire to turn on the road?
static friction
What two ways can friction be increased by?
movement and heat
