A lubricantis a substance introduced to reduce friction between moving surfaces. It may also have the function of transporting foreign particles. The property of reducing friction is known as Lubricity. (Slipperiness) This causes less friction.

Using lubricants on engine parts is an example of reducing what?
Friction
What are some common uses for lubricants?
Lubricants are solely used for reducing friction between two moving parts of a machine.
What kind of friction can help reduce friction?
I never heard of friction reducing friction. You can reduce friction by using lubricants, as well as using wheels (as in ball bearings).
How does lubricants reduce frictions?
It's liquid, ofcourse it's going to smooth out friction, reducing heat
What do lubricants do to friction by replacing sliding friction with fluid friction?
Lubricants reduce friction by replacing sliding friction with fluid friction.
Lubricants do what to friction by replacing sliding friction with fluid friction?
the correction option is true :)
How do lubricants improve efficiancy?
Efficiency means how much work is done; efficient means less work to accompish the same task. Lubricants reduce friction, thus reducing the work that must be done to accomplish a task.
How do lubricants help to reduce friciton?
The molecules of lubricants can slide over each other due to the weak attractions between them and hence they allow the machine parts to slide over each other smoothly reducing friction and damage.
What are used to reduce friction?
Lubricants.
How do lubricants affect friction?
It doesn't
What can you use to reduce friction?
A Lubricant This is because lubricants improves efficiency and reducing wear. It may also have the function of dissolving or transporting foreign particles and of distributing heat.
How does friction affect objects and how can they be changed?
Friction makes things warmer and can be changed by lubricants
