What do you mean by friction?

When two surfaces rub against each other, friction is formed. It is the force resisting the relative motion between fluid layers, solid surfaces and material elements that are sliding against each other.

Effect of speed on the force of friction?

Friction is independent of speed once an object is moving since faster does not mean more friction.


What is resistive forces?

Perhaps you mean friction or inertia.


What does it mean to be counter-friction?

Being counter-friction means to act in opposition or resistance to friction. It involves implementing measures or strategies to counteract the negative effects of friction, such as reducing resistance or increasing efficiency.

Is a sliding CD rolling friction?

Yes. Rolling friction does not mean the object must be rolling, only that the object is in motion.


What do you mean by nullifying friction?

To nullify means to eradicate or end something. Friction is a type of force. To nullify friction you would need to reduce the source that is causing the friction in the first place. Eg. If you have a rolling object there is friction. The faster the object the more intense the friction. Therefore if you stop or slow down the object you nullify the frictional force.

What Is Little In Friction?

In the context of friction, "little" would typically mean that there is not much resistance or opposition between two surfaces in contact. This would result in smoother movement and less energy loss due to friction.


What are two sources of friction?

Not sure if you mean 2 types of friction. Two types of friction can be just friction with the ground, and air friction such as drag on any vehicle, or any type of flying machine. Other objects can have air friction too, but not as much as something moving at a higher rate of speed.
