The purpose of making a hovercraft is to reduce the friction and drag that boats experience on the water. This makes the craft faster, more efficient, and more fun!
They experience a form of friction called drag.
Friction refers to the resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another. The kind of friction that sliding objects experience is sliding friction.
Yes. Airplanes experience drag from the air when in flight and friction from the ground when they are taxiing. There is also friction between parts in the plane.
Take the invention known as a brake. It stops motion. Because friction causes drag, putting friction on one side of a moving object and not on another will cause the object to veer towards the side with friction. That is the principal behind the rudder used in boats.
The bodies of planes and boats are streamlined so that they experience minimum amount of friction while moving through air and water, respectively.

boats and aeroplanes are given special shapes inorder to reduce the loss of energy in overcoming friction
The body of ships and boats are streamlined coz that they can experince minimum amount of Friction while moving through water
no

Boats usually have low friction (drag) compared to freight trains, but they have considerably more drag than most aircraft, especially the really fast ones. The faster the boat or aircraft, the lower the friction.
While surfing, you experience fluid friction.
The pistons, the cam(s), the lifters, every moving part will experience friction.
This type of friction is called drag.
