How can you maximize or minimize friction?

Friction can be maximized or minimized in several ways depending on the material, device construction and purpose, for example:Minimizing friction of a circling axis can be made by bearings, which usually have rolling balls. Rolling has usually less friction than sliding.In slide systems, friction can be minimized in various ways such as:Polishing the surface of both sliding sides (the opposite will increase friction)Adding a liquid such as oil between them. Oil fills the micro gaps on the surfaces therefore creating a slippery surfaceUsing certain techniques, e.g. air insulation, magnetic insulation


Describe three different ways to decrease the force of friction between two surfaces that are moving past each other?

Three ways to decrease the force of friction are- 1.)Polishing 2.)Lubrication 3.)Ball Bearings


What is an example of friction?

friction is what makes it hard to rub two pieces of sand paper together


What factors can effect the amount of friction between two objects?

The force of friction between two objects is the product of the normal force and the coefficient of friction. The normal force is the component of force that is perpendicular to the plane of friction. For example, if you are pushing on a block of wood on the floor with a force F at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal, then the normal force N = F sin 30. The coefficient of friction is specific to the two materials, in this example the block of wood and the floor. In addition, there is a static coefficient of friction (applicable to a stationary situation) and a kinetic coefficient of friction (applicable when the object is already moving).
