Friction slows things down.
The special force that stops things from moving or slows them down is called friction. Friction is the resistance encountered when one object moves over another, creating heat and wearing down the surfaces in contact.
Friction and Air Resistance
no. it is the opposite. friction is the force that slows down things in motion in contact with each other.
When an object speeds up, slows down, or changes direction, it is experiencing acceleration. Acceleration is the rate at which the velocity of an object changes over time. It can be caused by forces such as gravity, friction, or applied force.
because friction is a force that happens whenever an object slides or rolls over something. This means that a snowboarder slows down because of friction.
friction slows it down
Friction is important because without friction we would be sliding and slipping everywhere as friction slows down and stops things. Friction occurs when two things touch or make contact.
lubricant
It always opposes movement and slows things down or stops them moving altogether.
Whenever another force - usually friction - slows it down.
Friction slows down the motion of objects.
