When you rub 2 surfaces u are obstructed by a force acting in the opposite direction known as frictional force. Now looking at it in the micro scale no material is ever completely smooth. More u look in a magnified view you will see at the molecular level the surface of the material is never a complete flat portion. the shape may be for eg. ^^^^^^ so when you rub 2 such surfaces then energy is needed to cross over such peaks and hence a freely moving body slows down eventually
Friction is a force that acts in the opposite direction of motion, creating resistance. When objects are in contact with each other, surface irregularities and intermolecular forces cause friction to generate heat and slow down the movement of the objects.
You may be thinking of drag instead of friction. Friction between the floor and your foot increases your speed.
Because friction is when an object resists to another object moving on it, slowing it down. Usually the energy of the moving object is converted to thermal energy.
Friction is a force that will slow things down.
Friction, weight, and air resistance are forces that can slow things down. Friction opposes the motion of objects sliding past each other, weight is the force due to gravity pulling objects downwards, and air resistance is caused by air pushing against objects moving through it. Upthrust, also known as buoyancy, is a force that opposes weight but typically does not slow objects down.
Because of friction, Friction is what causes moving objects to slow down and eventually stop. This is an important science idea we can use to describe the force that pushes back on a moving object and makes it slow down and stop.
Friction is a force that resists motion between two surfaces in contact. It can either slow down or stop the movement of an object. The amount of friction depends on the roughness of the surfaces and the force pressing them together.
Friction is the force that resists the motion of one object moving relative to another. It causes objects to slow down and eventually come to a stop when they are in contact with each other.
Friction is a force, which (usually) tends to slow moving things down.
true. Friction DOES slow things down. In fact, if there was no friction once something started moving it wouldn't be able to stop Friction can slow the things down. It's true.
You would keep moving, because friction is what slows you down.
Friction. And somewhat the gravity, which causes the friction.
Friction will slow down the moving object
Friction is a force that resists motion between two surfaces in contact. It can either slow down or stop the movement of an object. The amount of friction depends on the roughness of the surfaces and the force pressing them together.
Friction, when moving sideways. Upthrust when you are trying to go down. gravity when you are trying to go up
Usually not. To slow a moving object down, some force must act on the moving object. On Earth, this force is usually friction. In outer space, there is no significant amount of friction, so moving objects tend to continue moving, unless they are slowed down by OTHER forces, such as gravity.
Friction is a force that will slow things down.
It is friction.
yes
