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.
Why is gravity the force that causes all types of mass movement?
Gravity is the main cause of all the mass movements because it brings everything down which causes it to destroy things in its path
Is pressure a contact or non-contact force?
Physical Pressure, as in press down or against something, is contact.
What force is responsible for the slowing down?
Friction is a force that will slow things down.
Is drag a contact force or a non contact force?
Drag (or air resistance) is a contact force because in the air there is loads of tiny air particles which collides with an object when passing through,slowing it down until it eventually stops and that makes it a contact force. Crystal

Why do things speed up or slow down?
Its all physics. Things speed up and slow down because of a force acting upon them. Newton's second law of motion states that the force applied to an object is equal to its mass times acceleration, i.e. F = MA. As a result force causes a change in acceleration, which causes a change in velocity. This can be positive or negative, depending on which direction the force is acting.
What force causes water to go down the drain?
gravity force
What force slows things down?
Friction, when moving sideways. Upthrust when you are trying to go down. gravity when you are trying to go up

Which is the main force that causes a toy car to roll down a ramp?
The gravitational force is.
What force causes a bike to slow down when you stop pedalling?
Friction causes the bike to slow down.
Describe contact force and noncontact force that affect the motion of a baseball a pitcher has thrown the ball?
The contact force will keep the ball moving but as the ball goes farther the ball slows down that's were the non contact force comes in it makes the ball not in contact
What force takes things down?
Gravity
