rough surfaces take more energy from the system in the form of friction
Yes. Think about two steep hills. One is covered in ice (smooth). The other is covered in sandpaper (rough). The ice covered hill would be MUCH easier to slide down. Thus, the friction is much LESS, on a SMOOTH SURFACE. Then the opposite must be true, that friction is GREATER on a ROUGH SURFACE.
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.
A smooth and slippery surface, such as polished metal or plastic, will help you go down a slide faster. Texture or rough surfaces can create friction, slowing you down.
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.
A sled or toboggan is commonly used for sliding down hills in snowy conditions. These devices have a smooth bottom surface that allows for gliding over the snow.
Friction increases or decreases based on the surface changes. If a box were sliding down a smooth hill that suddenly becomes quite rough, then friction would increase. It would be the same vice versa for decreasing friction.
Sliding Friction If you push hard enough on the cardboard box filled with books, it will start sliding. If you stop pushing after the box starts sliding, it will slow down and stop. The force that acted on the box to slow it down was sliding friction. Sliding friction is the force that opposes the motion of two sliding surfaces in contact. Sliding friction exists between all sliding surfaces that are touching, such as the surfaces of the moving parts in a car's engine.
Objects move on different surfaces by friction.
A basketball will roll faster on a smooth surface due to less friction compared to a rough surface. The rough surface creates more resistance, slowing down the ball's movement.
Kinetic friction occurs between two surfaces that are sliding past each other, which creates resistance and slows down the moving object. This type of friction is caused by the interaction between the molecules on the surfaces in contact.
Friction happened when two surfaces rub against each other, although the two surfaces seem smooth but microscopicallythey're surface are rough. Without friction you could slip and fall when you walk. Friction slows down moving object and could also stop a moving object.
A smoother surface, such as polished wood or plastic, will help reduce friction and allow the toy car to go down the ramp faster. Avoid surfaces with a lot of texture or resistance, like carpet or rough concrete, as they will slow down the car's movement.
