Why does light reflect better off of smooth surfaces than rough surfaces?
smooth surface
Why is friction least effected by smooth surfaces?
Smooth vs. Rough surfaces. Rough surfaces have more surface area than smooth surfaces. This means that there are increased incidences of molecular reactions between the surface and object
What type of surfaces have little friction?
smooth surfaces
Is friction greater with rough or smooth surfaces?
Smooth
Why is there less resistance on a smooth surface?
Because friction is less on smooth surfaces. Smoother the surfaces, lesser the friction.
Does a smooth surface reduce friction?
There is more friction between the surfaces of 2 smooth surfaces than one smooth surface because there is more surface area.
Why does some friction occur on smooth surfaces?
Some friction will occur on smooth surfaces because even the smoothest of surfaces isn't completely smooth. There are bumps and cracks on the face of the surface when "zooming in" to a microscopic level.
Why does rough surfaces have more friction compared to smooth surfaces?

Are rough surfaces have more friction than smooth surfaces?
True.
Why can you only see yourself in smooth and polished surfaces?
You can see yourself in smooth and polished surfaces because the surface is clean and not blurry. Also, you can't see yourself in certain smooth and polished surfaces, such as tan desks.
Why friction does not occur in smooth surfaces?
It is wrong to say that friction doesn't occur in smooth surface.. As ideally, no such surface exists, which has 0 value of friction. We can say that the magnitude of friction force is less in smooth surfaces as compared to that in rough surfaces. Friction opposes the motion of a body. When we go to the molecular level, we can see that the surface of a plane is not smooth but rough.. We cannot see that roughness through naked eyes. But the amount of roughness differs from object to object. The so called smooth surfaces have less roughness as compared to un-smooth surfaces. Hence, the magnitude of friction is LESS in smooth surfaces...
Is it possible for the frictional force between two surfaces that are extremely smooth and flat to increase?
Yes the application of a load normal to the plane of the smooth flat surfaces will increase the friction between the surfaces.
