Surfaces which are rough create the most friction. Like cement, or sand paper.

∙ 9y agoFriction is the resistance that one object or surface encounters when it moves against another object. The surfaces that exhibit the most frictional force are rough surfaces.

How does surface roughness affect friction?
answer it yourself ;)
The amount of friction depends on what?
Friction depends on the surface that the object is going against. If an applied force is used to push a box on a ground, the friction is the surface of the ground, may the ground be rough or smooth, there is a force that goes against the applied force. Air friction is also a type of friction that many physics question does not account for, because it is a virtually small force.
What kind of friction is wheels rolling on a car?
kinetic friction, and this motion creates thermal energy from this friction. However the wheels moving on a car is directly created from the work of a combustion engine which creates multiple types of friction, chemical and thermal are the two major types.
Examples of high friction?
Example of high friction is a really rough surface like sandpaper.
Force that opposes motion of surface as it moves across another surface?
the force that opposes the motion of two touching surfaces is velocity.
What surfaces create most friction?
a perfectly polished surface creates the most, follower by a rough surface, which is the more usual case.
What is much friction the smooth surface or the rough?
the rough surface creates more friction as to that of soft surfaced ones
How does the roughness of a surface effect friction?
The rougher then surface the greater the frictional force. When a surface is rough and you put friction to it, it creates sparks while smooth surfaces when friction is added causes a slight stactic shock.
The type of force when the surfaces of two objects touch?
Two surfaces touching together creates friction. rub your hands together(two surface from your each hand) creates friction and head is the result.
What can be used to reduce sliding friction and why?
A lubricant such as oil or wax, because it creates a smoother surface to slide on.
How does body oil and powder affect surface friction?
Body oil is a lubricant, so it diminishes friction. Body powder (I'm assuming you mean the kind that "dissolves" also creates this lubricant effect, unless it's particularly rough, which creates more friction.
When energy is released when friction is applied?
friction creates heat. Largely heat, which comes from the external agent energy causing the friction. Also some possible rearrangement of the atomic/molecular structure of the surface, and the energy for that also comes from the external agent.
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 does burning rubber create friction?
Burning rubber creates Friction because friction creates heat and burning is heat
Does the slant of an uneven surface create friction between the object and the surface?
What happens is gravity is pulling an object down, and if the surface it's resting on is slanted or uneven, there is a horizontal component to the force. That horizontal component attempts to move the object, however what CREATES the friction is the coefficient of kinetic friction (if the object is moving) or coefficient of static friction (if the object doesn't actually move) of the two surfaces. The two surfaces being the surface of the object that's touching the slanted surface and the slanted surface itself. These coefficients are determined by what the two surfaces are made of. Long story short, what CREATES the friction is the two materials touching each other. The slant just provides the force that attempts to move the object thus resulting in a visual representation of "friction."
Does salt create friction?
no, movement creates friction
What objects does friction stop?
Objects with the most surface area.
