Friction is all around you. Anytime you have two objects touching but moving past each other, there is friction. (Superfluids and hypothesized supersolids are exceptions.) Your bike driving down the road will slow down and stop if you just coast. Newton showed that the natural state of affairs is for things to keep moving in a straight line at the same speed unless a force acts upon it. The forces in this case include air resistance (a form of friction which is negligible when the bike is going slowly enough) and wheel axles. Friction turns motion energy into heat. A car's brakes can get very hot if you brake all the way down a hill.

Does electrons move from one object to anther when rubbed together?
electrons get transferred in form of energy when photon of energy higher than binding energy falls on it electron is ejected in form of energy by conduction,convection ,radiation
When is friction desirable and undesirable in rugby?
Desirable in scrummaging when the two packs form together. Without friction they would slip off which is dangerous. Friction is also desirable when making the tackle. And when sidestepping you need good grip. Undesireable when trying to evade the tackle.
Is frictioning a word?
Frictioning is not a word. Friction is a noun. So you cannot use it in -ing form.
What is attrition in geography?
Attrition is a form river or coastal erosion. It is when friction against the rock particles as they move and become smaller.
When a body slides over a surface the kinetic friction and static friction related as?
Kinetic friction is the friction that applies when an object is moving; static friction is the friction that applies when the object is not moving. Static friction must always be greater than, or equal to, kinetic friction.
What is the plural form of friction?
the plural form of friction is friction
What is the plural of friction?
the plural form of friction is friction
What form of energy is produced as friction?
Friction can produce energy in the form of heat
Is air resistance stronger than friction?
No. Its a form of friction.
Is traction a form of friction?
Yes.
Which form of friction is harder to overcome static or kinetic?
The static coef. of friction is greater than the kinetic coef. of friction.
What is form friction?
loss of energy in fluid because of friction of seperated boundary layers
What affects the speed of a rolling car?
Friction, gravity, wind resistence(form of friction)
7 8 in simplest form?
The friction 7/8 in the simplest form would be 7/8. The friction cannot go any lower.7/8 is in its simplest form.
What is the form of energy that makes something move?
friction
What form of energy do you use when you are scrubbing the floor?
Friction
A special form of rolling friction is called?
Sliding
