Fluid friction occurs when a solid object moves through a fluid.
fluid friction
Yes
Fluid Friction .
Fluid friction acting on an object moving through the air is called air.
Viscosity is defined as a measure of the resistance to flow of a fluid. Therefor, the flow of, or the passage of an object through, a viscous fluid is resisted by the fluid.
Resistance.
If the fluid is air, and assuming that the object is already streamlined and aerodynamic, then polishing or coating its surface with a sticky substance to leave as little jagged spikes at the microscopic level. If the fluid is water, then possibly coating it with a apolar substance that doesn't interact with water, which is polar would cause it to have less friction and dissipate less energy.
