What else can I help you with?
Does lubrication increase friction?
lubrication decreases friction unless you're lubricating with sandpaper.
What does lubricating oil do?
Reduces friction between moving parts.
How can you reduce friction of a surface?
By lubricating it or adding oil to the surface.
Why do you say that lubricating fluids control friction?

Why does coating surfaces with oil reduce friction?
Coating surfaces with oil reduces friction by creating a lubricating layer between the two surfaces in contact, which helps to reduce direct metal-to-metal contact and friction. This lubricating layer allows surfaces to slide past each other more easily, resulting in lower friction and wear on the surfaces.
Why lubricating oil is used?
Lubricating oil is used to reduce friction between moving parts and to prevent damage due to excess heat. Lubricating oil also carries away sludge preventing the erosion of moving parts.
What produces lubricating fluid that reduces friction when the lungs expand?
The pleura, a membrane that surrounds the lungs, produces a lubricating fluid called pleural fluid. This fluid reduces friction between the lungs and the chest wall when the lungs expand and contract during breathing.
What fraction provides lubricating oils?
A fraction of petroleum provides lubricating oils, which are obtained from the refining process of crude oil. Lubricating oils have specific viscosities and properties that make them suitable for reducing friction and wear in machinery and engines.
What type of friction is brushing your hair?
it is sliding friction,because you slide the brish down to your hair.
Name the force that exists between the moving parts of a machine and how can this be reduced?
Friction. It can be reduced by lubricating substances such as oil.
Is lubricating oil a volatile liquid?
No lubricating oils are not. The reason is that they have to be able to withstand heat from friction of moving engine parts etc. They have very high boiling points and thus very low volatility.
What does oil do in the process of lubricating machinery?
Oil in the process of lubricating machinery reduces friction between moving parts, which helps prevent wear and tear, reduces heat generation, and prolongs the lifespan of the machinery.
