Does ice has a higher coefficient of friction than rubber does?
Rubber has more friction than an ice cube. Ice has almost no friction what so ever.
Why does carpet have so much friction?
A carpet has so much friction because it has a coarse surface, causing the surface to rub against it and cause friction.
How is friction increased in tires?
by lowering the pressure in the tires but it depends on what kind of soil the track is in, for example for wet conditions you need more traction as you need to lower the pressure in the tires so you get more drive. Buy a pressure Gauge.
Use static friction in a sentence?
Lightening creates so much static friction that it can electrocute people
How does a Zamboni drive on ice without Friction?
Actually, without friction, the Zamboni would not go anywhere. Ice just reduces friction. There are microscopic pores in the ice, so when the Zamboni is on top of it, the rubber tires press into the holes, so the vehicle gets a good grip. This makes it possible for the Zamboni to move across the ice.
How does rubber soles reduce friction?
rubber has so much friction ,because it is appling static friction. 6th grade student

Why are your back brakes rubbing after replacing?
because they are new they haven't bin smoothed out with water there just rubber so there is quite a bit of friction.
How do you say burn rubber in swedish?
Burn rubber, as in the performed art where a car's tires are heated enough so that smoke evaporates as a result of friction is translated into "bränna gummi". The same translation is also valid for the not-as-common art of simply burning rubber (e.g. industrial burning of rubber).
What type of bonding will rubber have?
it all depends on the type of rubber synthetic rubber is easily worn with friction and rots over time with wind and cold weather and water but usually has very good bonding.were as natural rubber comes from a tree so bonds are usually stronger and they take a lot longer to rot.usually the bonding comes from what the rubber is made of

What are the advantages and disadvantages of synthetic rubber?
There are so many advantages of rubber. Some of them include manufacture of footwear, it is used to make latex, rubber can be used as an insulator and so much more.
Why does sandpaper have so much friction?
Due to the abrasive nature of sand.
How does friction generates static electricity?
because when friction builds up too much energy it is released through spraks and so.
Why do electrician screwdrivers have rubber handle?
This is my opinion. When using a screwdriver, you would have to twist and turn. This creates friction. by creating friction, the screwdrivers are getting negatively charged. But, rubbers are insulators(objects that hold elections loosely. Mostly non-metals). this means that rubber can hold electrons tightly; preventing any electrons from flowing. So by using rubber, electricians or one would have protection from electric shock. but if there were no rubber, there would be sparks from negatively charged screwdriver when it is attracted to a positive charged or neutral object. The rubber hold the electrons which prevent electric shock. ~Anonymous
