Why do suction cup stick to wet surfaces better than dry surfaces?
No. How well a suction cup sticks to a surface has to do with how will a seal can be formed on the surface. Rough surfaces will not form good seals compared to smooth surfaces which means that suction cups will not stick as well to rough surfaces as they do to smooth surfaces.
What is physical difference between surfaces with high and low coefficients of friction?
A high coefficient of friction may be caused by a rough surface. It may also be the result of surfaces sticking together, as in the case of rubber which tends to stick to certain surfaces, at least when it is dry. Lubrication - such as a thin layer of oil - tends to reduce the coefficient of friction.
