The sliding friction acts in the opposite direction of motion.
The force that slows down a book sliding on a table is mainly friction. As the book moves across the table, the friction between the book and the table surface opposes the motion, causing the book to slow down until it eventually stops.
Pushing a book across a table creates sliding friction between the book and the table surface, which acts in the opposite direction of the pushing force, making it harder to move the book.
Yes, Sliding friction opposes the movement of the book, slowing it down.
Gravity - and friction. The larger book has more gravity - holding it own onto the desk. Friction stops the book sliding sideways.

Sliding a book across a table is a perfect example of kinetic friction, which is found when an object is moving against a surface.The equation for this is:Fkf=µk*Fnwhere µk is the coefficient of kinetic friction and Fn is the normal forceThe friction that prevents an object from moving is called static friction.the type of friction that we observe is similar to that when a guy rubs a gal.........just fell it do not try to understand........jai telangana.........
Static friction: pushing a heavy box across the floor, trying to start a stationary car. Kinetic friction: sliding a book across a table, skidding on a wet road while driving. Fluid friction: swimming through water, moving a paddle through the air.
Sex has a friction when people go up and down and up and down and pole dancing does.
Static friction occurs when two surfaces are not moving relative to each other, while kinetic friction occurs when two surfaces are sliding past each other. An example of static friction is trying to push a heavy box that won't budge, while an example of kinetic friction is the resistance when sliding a book across a table.
Low friction is made when you rub smooth surfaces together, and they slide easily. For example, a melting ice cube would easily slide across a glass table because there is low friction. In contrast, high friction is when there is high resisting force. For example, if you rub velcro across a rug, there would be high friction, and it would be more difficult than sliding the ice across the glass table.
The book's kinetic energy was converted into heat and sound energy as it slid across the table and came to a stop. Friction between the book and the table surface caused this conversion of energy.
The book slows down and stops due to the force of friction acting between the book and the table. As the book moves, friction opposes its motion, causing it to lose speed until it eventually comes to a stop.
