Friction always acts in the opposite direction, of the other object's motion.


Explain how friction affects the motion of an object?

Friction is speed's worst enemy. If no forces act on an object, it is stationary. If a force acts on an object, it keeps going forever until another force acts on it (such as friction!!!).


How does friction affects the motion of and object?

Friction acts in the direction opposite to that of the net force acting on the object.


Force that act on object that are not moving?

Static friction is the force that acts on an object that is not moving. Other kinds of friction include fluid friction and rolling friction.


What is meant by friction?

A resistance that acts when an object moves.


What is a force that acts against the movement of an object?

Friction


In which direction does friction act?

Friction always acts in the opposite direction to that of the motion of the other object. Meaning, friction slows down the motion of an object by exerting opposing forces on it.


Friction is a force that always acts?

Friction is a force that always acts opposite to sliding or rolling of one solid object over another.


What happens if you throw a rock where gravity and friction have no influence?

If no force (gravity, friction, or any other force) acts on an object, it will continue moving indefinitely, without changing its velocity (i.e., speed and direction).


If there is more friction what happens to a moving object?

the object moves slower


Would friction make an object faster?

No, friction is a force which always acts in the direction opposite to that of motion.
