friction releases thermal energy and releases speed and efficiency.

What is the strongest type of friction?

There are four types of friction: Fluid Friction (The friction caused by falling through air or water, or any other liquid etc), rolling friction (Like a ball rolling across the floor), static friction (The force it takes to begin something's movement), and sliding friction(Like pushing a box across the floor). In order of strongest to weakest it's Static, Sliding, Rolling, Fluid.


What friction is there when people slip on a clean wet floor?

This type of friction is called lubricated friction. Lubricated friction is a type of fluid friction where a fluid separates two solid surfaces.


How are air resistance and friction alike?

Air resistance is a type of fluid friction (along with water resistance) and is therefore is a type of friction.

Does friction cause the average speed of a marble on a floor to decrease?

Yes, because of rolling friction which is a type of friction that any rolling object experiences. This friction adds resistance to roll which will slow the marble and eventually stop.


What type of energy that is lost doing work is lost as what type of energy?

Usually thermal energy. This is true for all types of heat engines, ie gasoline or diesel engines, gas turbines, steam turbines, and so on. If you are talking about mechanical work like a system of levers, or pushing a weight along a surface, friction will be the cause of energy loss and this again will show as thermal energy loss (heat is produced at the points of friction)


Which type of friction opposes the motion?

Static friction is the type of friction that opposes the motion.
