What surface has the least amount of friction?
The surfaces used as the measure of lowest friction are generally wet ice on wet ice. Some materials, such as superfluid Helium III have no measurable friction.
Will the speed of the object affect the amount of friction between object and the surface?
No. The speed of the object does not affect the amount of friction between an object and the surface. Friction is affected by the types of surfaces in contact, smoother surfaces produce less friction, and the weight of the object moving horizontally affects the resistance relative to the two surfaces in contact. Greater weight causes greater resistance.
Is the amount of friction greater between rough surfaces or smooth and Why?
Rough surfaces, the rougher the surface, the greater the friction.
What surface uses the least amount of friction?
wet surfaces like tiles have the least amount oof friction
What are the factors that determine the amount of friction between two surfaces?
Friction= Normal force* Coefficient of friction

What Has the greatest amount of friction between solid surfaces?
Solids that are actually glued, or better yet soldered, together.

What are the factors that determine the amount of friction between two surfaces?
Friction= Normal force* Coefficient of friction
What is the effect of force on friction?
The amount of friction depends on the force pushing the surfaces together.
Is the amount of friction greater between rough surfaces or smooth surfaces why?
Rough because it takes longer to slide and gets more friction
What are the two factors that determine the amount of friction between two surfaces?
Friction= Normal force* Coefficient of friction
What determines the amount of friction?
The roughness of the two objects coming in contact determines the degree of friction.
A lower coefficient of friction indicates that the two surfaces in contact have less resistance?
Yes but make sure you are clear in your understanding between the coefficient of friction and the force of friction. The force of friction is the force that resists the motion of two surfaces moving against one another. The amount of friction is determined by the product of the coefficient of friction and the normal (perpendicular) force that is pressing the two surfaces together. The coefficient of friction is a unit-less constant, that indicates how two surfaces compare to two other surfaces that are being pressed together the same amount. If the normal force is the same on two pairs of surfaces the pair of surfaces with the lowest coefficient of friction will experience the lower force of friction.
What are the biggest 2 factors in determining the amount of friction?
The force with which both surfaces are touching and the types of surfaces involved
