What is sticking points between two surfaces that cause friction called?
Net force is the sticking point between two surfaces that cause friction.
What causes friction between two seemingly smooth surfaces?
Tiny collisions on the surfaces, called microwelds, cause friction.
What type of surfaces might cause a toy car to roll faster or slower?
Faster: Surfaces with less friction (smooth) ;slanted surfaces Slower: Surfaces with more friction (sticky surfaces, rough surfaces), uphill surfaces Of course a slanted surface with too much friction will also make the car slower.
What is the cause of frictionand in what direction does it act with respect to the motion of sliding object?
Friction is caused when two surfaces come into contact with one another. The irregularities on the surfaces rub against one another and friction results. Friction opposes motion. That is to say, friction acts in the direction opposite to motion.
How does lubicus help to reduce friction?
Lubricants reduce friction by various means. Here are some:They form a layer between surfaces that are moving with respect to each other that keeps those surface from contacting each other. The lubricant keeps the surfaces apart.The lubricant washes away particles that might cause friction between the surfaces. It acts as as cleanser.Some lubricants harden the surfaces of the parts they are lubricating to make them less subject to wear.
What types of weather cause friction on surfaces to decrease?
Colder temperatures can cause friction on surfaces to decrease as it can make surfaces more smooth and slippery. Rain or wet conditions can also reduce friction due to the presence of moisture on the surface. Additionally, icy or frosty conditions can lead to a decrease in friction as the ice or frost can create a slippery surface.

Describe the factors that cause static friction between two surfaces to increase.?
A higher coefficient of static friction increases the static frictional force. A greater normal force also does this.
What type of surfaces might cause a toy car to roll faster or slower?
Faster: Surfaces with less friction (smooth) ;slanted surfaces Slower: Surfaces with more friction (sticky surfaces, rough surfaces), uphill surfaces Of course a slanted surface with too much friction will also make the car slower.
What does friction cause an increase in?
heat.
What are the other disadvantages of force?
friction can cause the wearing away of surfaces
Does friction decrease or increase?
Wax, due to it filling the pores that cause friction will reduce friction.
What is the cause of frictionand in what direction does it act with respect to the motion of sliding object?
Friction is caused when two surfaces come into contact with one another. The irregularities on the surfaces rub against one another and friction results. Friction opposes motion. That is to say, friction acts in the direction opposite to motion.
Does friction cause the speed of moving objects to increase?
No, the force of friction always acts in the direction opposite to that of the motions.
How does tire tread increase friction between tire and road?
tires are made of rubber and rubber can cause friction
