Best Answer

The surface that has the lowest friction is a wet surface, or a surface that has been oiled with light oil, or the air cushion underneath a hovercraft. Then there is the train that runs on magnetic rails, hovering above the rails without physically touching.

How surface influences the amount of friction there is?

The larger the contact surface, the more friction. The more uneven the surface, the more friction. The material of the surface has also an effect on friction.


What is surface friction is?

Surface friction ALWAYS point parallel to the surface and opposite motion. There must be a normal force for there to be friction


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.


How does surface area affect friction?

more rough surface more friction object have


Which surface gives the least friction?

Plane surface with negligible friction.

How does roughness of surface that are touching affect the friction between the surface?

the rougher the surface is, the more friction there will be


How does the surface of an object affect friction?

the smoother a surface is, the less friction it produces.


What type of surface provides a lot of friction?

Rough surface provides lot of friction.


How do mass and surface type affect friction?

if the mass is more than the friction is high. and if the surface is rough then also the friction is more. thus we can say that both mass and surface type affects friction.


What is the force that resist the movement of one surface past another surface is called?

A force that resists motion of one surface across another surface is called FRICTION(or FRICTIONAL FORCE)


How does a surface affect friction?

Depending on the roughness or smoothness of the surface, it will increase friction if it is rough,(which has more microscopic hills and valleys). If the surface is made of a smooth material, it will decrease friction
