Friction originates from the fact that everything is rough at a small enough scale. When these rough parts grind against each other, something must move out of the way, since every force results in motion. When something does give, part of the force is used, and since the scale is so small, heat is created as individual molecules move.

When a body slides over a surface the kinetic friction and static friction related as?
Kinetic friction is the friction that applies when an object is moving; static friction is the friction that applies when the object is not moving. Static friction must always be greater than, or equal to, kinetic friction.
Is rolling friction greater than sliding friction?
Typically not. However rolling friction is somewhat of a myth. Rolling friction is actually caused by static friction. There are really only two types of friction: Static and Kinetic. That's it! Rolling friction is caused by static friction and the coefficient of friction (which determines its strength) is dependent upon the two materials of interaction.
What is the advantages of friction?
what is the advantages of friction
Is friction a natural force?
friction is a natural force
What is coeffitient of stactic n kinetic friction?
The coefficient of static or kinetic friction depends on the surfaces that are causing friction. The formula for it is: force of friction over normal force.
What are the 2kinds of friction?
Static Friction and Kinetic Friction. Static Friction is what friction that slows you down. While Kinetic friction is sliding friction.
Which friction has least value option sliding friction static friction rolling friction Air friction?
i think it it rolling friction
What do lubricants do to friction by replacing sliding friction with fluid friction?
Lubricants reduce friction by replacing sliding friction with fluid friction.
Which friction is greater sliding friction or static friction?
Static friction
Which force is weakened when the floor is wet?
Friction is reduced on a wet floor.
What are the kinds of friction?
the kinds of friction are dry friction,fluid friction,lubricated friction,skin friction and internal friction. 80409e2d-12a3-4f5b-ba94-08ddbe6232dc 1.03.01
Which kind of friction requires more force to overcome rolling friction friction or sliding friction?
Sliding Friction
4 types of friction and give an example of each?
Rolling Friction, Static Friction, Sliding Friction, & fluid Friction
What is non friction?
Non friction is something that is not friction!
What is the plural of friction?
the plural form of friction is friction
Name the three types of friction?
Three types of friction are : 1. Kinetic friction :Friction that arises between surfaces in relative motion. 2. Static friction :Friction that acts between surfaces at rest with respect to each other 3. Rolling friction : Friction that occurs when an object rolls over a surface. Static, sliding, rolling.
Lubricants do what to friction by replacing sliding friction with fluid friction?
the correction option is true :)
