Friction is force that opposes an objects motion. Therefore, the less friction the object encounters, the less opposition it will have to its direction of travel. The less opposition it has, the faster it may go.

Theoretically, a moving object that encounters no friction will continue to travel at a constant rate for EVER.

Is the concord faster than the bloodhound car?

Bloodhound SSC: 1050 mphConcorde: 1614 mphConcorde's WAY faster! ('cause it's a plane, obviously; planes are faster than cars because they don't have friction against the ground; they don't rub against anything except air, and Concorde flies much higher than any jet today, 60,000 feet, so there's very little air to cause friction up there, which allows it to go so fast).


How do you reduce friction on a co2 car?

remove as much space touching the surface which will cause friction.


Why do drag cars have small front tires?

Drag cars have small front tires to reduce friction and resistance, allowing the car to accelerate faster and maintain stability at high speeds.


Why does it take longer for cars to stop on pavement covered in ice then pavement that is dry?

WHY!It is because the ice makes the friction between the tires and the pavementgreater.


Why do cars not have to get faster and faster when it sets off?

A car has a variable power setting called a throttle. So you can vary the power and thus the acceleration and maximum speed you reach. Then there is friction resisting the movement of the car, so if the faster it goes the more power is required to to make it go faster or even maintain the speed you are at.

Is friction useful or useless?

Friction is useful because it helps objects grip and move against each other. It allows us to walk, drive cars, and hold objects without them slipping from our hands. However, excessive friction can also cause wear and tear on objects.


Is it necessary to pump up the brakes in cars to make them last longer?

Pumping gently will reduce friction, produce less heat and help the brakes last a little longer. This procedure is not recommended if you have a truck with air operated brakes.
