What type of surface provides a lot of friction?
Rough surface provides lot of friction.
Does a rough surface have a lot of friction?
Rough surfaces do create more friction than smooth surfaces. How much friction is created depends on how rough the surface is.
Which common surface causes very little friction?
An air hockey table with the air turned on has almost no friction. Other than that, very smooth surfaces cause very little friction. If you use certain types of cleaner on hardwood floor, it can be turned into a surface with little or no friction (and you will fall an hurt yourself a lot. not suggested.)
The size of forces due to static sliding and rolling friction between two surfaces?
static sliding has a much greater force then rolling friction cause it covers more area
Air resistance is a type of friction True or False?
Air- resistance is basically a type of friction between an object and the air
What type of surface provides a lot of friction?
Rough surface provides lot of friction.
What sort of surface would you need to not slip down a slope?
Any surface with texture will make it harder to slip. Other surfaces may include ones that cause a lot of friction. For example, wood. The soles of your shoes will cause friction against the wood.

How are friction and energy different?
Friction can be created when to objects are rubbed together. The particle push against each other and cause the electrons to be agitated. This can cause a lot of heat energy to be produced, sometimes sound and even light. Think about when a tyre of a car brakes. The force between the tyre and the surface of the road is friction.

static sliding has a much greater force then rolling friction cause it covers more area
How is friction applied?
Friction is applied, by making the surface of whatever you want to slide across it (the thing you want to apply friction to) is really rough. You can inscrease, and decrease the amount of friction acting on an object by changing the texture, material and smoothness of the surface. Smoother surfaces don't apply much friction to objects, and rougher surfaces apply a lot. An example of this, is Wellington Boots. They have rough underneaths, so you don't fall over - they apply a lot of friction.
How does low air pressure in bicycle tires reduce the efficiency of the bicycle?
Flabby tyres produce more friction with the road.Less air pressure creates more surface friction, the less surface friction there is the better. (Example look at the very skinny narrow tyres on road racers as they don't need a lot of surface friction while mountain bikes have thick tyres as they need more friction)
How do latex swimming caps allow smooth movement through water?
It stops the water from going through your hair. That would cause a lot of friction. Friction slows you down a lot.
Air resistance is a type of friction True or False?
Air- resistance is basically a type of friction between an object and the air
What happens if there is a lot of friction?
Then what ever is trying to move or is moving will more smoother and maybe faster over the surface.
What happens if there is not a lot of friction?
Then what ever is trying to move or is moving will more smoother and maybe faster over the surface.
