Which forces decrease due to interaction between two surfaces?
Friction is the force that decreases motion through the interaction between two surfaces.
What is the interaction between two surfaces?
friction!
Which force motion decreases due to interaction between two surfaces?
Friction is the force that decreases motion through the interaction between two surfaces.
Does friction oppose motion or relative motion of surfaces in contact?
Relative motion
In which year friction invented?
Friction wasn't invented, it is an interaction between objects : "Friction is the force resisting the relative lateral motion of two solid surfaces in contact, or a solid surface in contact with a fluid"
What refers to the relative lightness or darkness of surfaces?
Value.
What evidence is there that a friction interaction has occurred?
The surfaces in contact show signs of degradation.
Which forcce decreases motion due to interaction between two surfaces?
Friction.
What is branch of mathematics concerned with points lines curves and surfaces?
Geometry
What force makes a car begin to move?
1. The forces involved are arise in response to the action of an applied force. 2. Discuss the interaction between an object and a surface it is resting on; the object pushes down on the surface; the surface pushes up on the object with an equal force; this is called the reaction of the surface. 3. Discuss the interaction between two surfaces which slide (or tend to slide) relative to each other; each surface experiences a force in the direction which prevents (or tends to prevent) relative movement; this interaction is called friction.
Can there be a frictional force between two surfaces when there is no relative motion between the two?
Yes, friction can be the force that is preventing relative motion between two surfaces; this is called traction. That is why you can walk without slipping.
What is the force that can move between surfaces?
The force that can move between surfaces is called friction. It resists the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material element sliding against each other.
