What else can I help you with?
What is a substace applied to a surface to reduces friction called?
A lubricant
How does airtrack reduce friction?
Airtrack reduces friction by creating a cushion of air that separates the object from the surface it is moving on. This cushion of air effectively reduces the contact area between the object and the surface, minimizing friction and allowing for smoother movement.
What Type of friction is present on a water slide?
The type of friction present on a water slide is kinetic friction. Kinetic friction occurs when an object moves across the surface of another object, in this case, when a person slides down the water slide. The water on the slide reduces friction, allowing the person to slide more easily.
Why do friction is high in very smooth surfsces?
i honestly didnt get ur ans but ill still try to help u out.. friction is the opposing force to a motion, when the surface is very smooth friction reduces.. i.e the smoother the surface the less the friction.. for eg.. if u spill oil on the road the car starts slipping and becomes hard to stop it i.e bcos the surface becms smoother and reduces friction..
When an object rolls over a surface the kind of friction that occurs is called friction.?
The friction that occurs is Rolling Friction
How ball bearing reduce friction?
Bearings reduce friction by providing smooth metal balls or rollers, and a smooth inner and outer metal surface for the balls to roll against. The smoothness of the metal reduces the friction and the surface area.
Why does an object take longer to slow down on a slippery surface?
On a slippery surface, there is less friction between the object and the surface, which reduces the force acting against the object's motion. This means that it takes longer for the object to decelerate and come to a stop compared to a surface with more friction.
What absorbs shock and reduces friction in joints?
Cartilage absorbs shock and reduces friction in joints by providing a smooth surface for bones to glide against each other and by acting as a cushion to absorb impact forces.
Why is it easy to slip on a wet floor?
because the water reduces friction between the surface you are standing on, and your feet.
How do mass and surface type affect friction?
Mass affects friction by increasing the normal force between the surfaces, which in turn increases the frictional force. Surface type affects friction by altering the coefficient of friction between the surfaces - rougher surfaces typically have higher coefficients of friction which results in greater frictional forces.
What type of tissue covers the epiphysis bones and reduces friction in the joints?
Articular cartilage
How is it that wood has more friction on metal than felt?
Wood has a rougher and less flexible surface compared to felt, leading to greater surface contact and thus more friction with the smooth surface of metal. Felt has a smoother and softer texture, which reduces the surface area in contact with metal and therefore decreases friction.
