carpet... the lino allows things to slide across it easily, creating minimal friction. the carpet has hairs which catch on things and generates a large amount of friction.

Which would provide greater friction -carpet or lino?
it would be carpit
Would a desk on carpet have sliding friction?
no i do not believe so
How much friction thick carpet produces?
It doesn't work that way - friction is not something that is "produced". The way it works is that you have a coefficient of friction for two surfaces that are in contact. Then you use that coefficient of friction, and multiply it by the normal force, to calculate the actual FORCE of friction.For the coefficient of friction, you need to specify a PAIR of substances; for example, carpet against glass would probably have less friction than carpet against rubber.
Does surface area have an effect on friction?
Yes greater the surface area coming into contact friction would increase
What type of surfaces have more friction than other?
I would say a carpet or rope has alot of friction. but if you want to test for your self use a toy car on a slope and let in roll down the longer it takes to get to the end the more friction the material has.

What surface would produce the greatist friction on an object?
Carpet has more friction than tile. Tile has more friction than ice.

If you use rubber fingers as friction for a shoe what flooring would it be best on?
it would be better on plush carpet i have done that before.
What does it mean to increase friction?
It would be harded to move!!

Is there a force that can go against friction?
No. Friction can only slow an object down. If friction were imparting a force greater than that of the applied forces, then friction in and of itself would actually be causing the object to move, which does not happen.
What would result in greater friction riding a sled down a snowy slope or pulling it across a sidewalk?
Pulling a sled across a sidewalk because rougher surfaces have more friction.
What prevents the output work from never being greater than the input work?
That would be resistance. Oftentimes referred to as friction.
Which ownership structure would provide the greater financing opportunities?
public company
