Friction is more on irregular surfaces.
The lubricant fills the irregularities and makes the surface smooth and thus reduces friction.
What a lubrication does is reduce the friction by forming a smoothe layer in between the two surfaces.
Lubricants also reduce heat :P Hope That Helped :)
By eliminating solid-solid sliding contact. A solid is defined as a material that can support shear (lateral force). When two solids come into contact, imperfections in the surface interferer with each other and resist slide by their shear strength. Liquids or macroscopic balls of graphite (dry lubricant) flow or roll to reduce shear forces the result in friction's Lubricants can reduce the corrosion particles and reduce wear and tear with the help of molecular participles in lubricant oil.
Lubricants.
Lubricants reduce friction by replacing sliding friction with fluid friction.
I never heard of friction reducing friction. You can reduce friction by using lubricants, as well as using wheels (as in ball bearings).
you can use some anti-friction like lubricants (oil,gas).

the correction option is true :)
True. Lubricants reduce friction by forming a thin layer between moving surfaces, which helps to replace sliding friction with fluid friction. This allows for smoother movement and decreased wear on the surfaces in contact.

That's what lubricants are for.
You can't. You can reduce it with lubricants, polishing surfaces, & bearings.
Lubricants are liquids used to reduce friction between surfaces in contact with each other. They help to minimize wear and heat generation in machinery and engines.
Viscous lubricants, such as oils and greases, reduce friction by creating a fluid layer between moving surfaces. This fluid layer separates the surfaces, allowing them to slide past each other with less resistance. The viscosity of the lubricant determines the effectiveness of this fluid friction.
