Well friction is a force that acts between two surfaces in contact. Although it has unwanted effects like loss of energy or wear and tear, yet it is a very important force and is thus sometimes called 'the necessary evil'. At homes friction needs to be increased on stairs, floors, especially bathroom floors in order to prevent accidents due slipping or skidding. The greater friction between shoes/feet and the floor, the lesser is the chance of slipping. In bathrooms, water/soap on the floor may reduce friction drastically thus greatly increasing the chances of slipping.

How did agricultural adjustment act affect Georgia during the great depression?
it increased the food productions for the war needs.
Does friction speed up an object?
Friction does not speed up an object; it creates drag and slows it down.
What is rolling friction and what does it do?
In general rolling friction is any friction specifically related to the rolling motion. The friction on the axle to hub bearing, the tire flexing, the tire tread on the surface of the road and so on.
Effect of speed on the force of friction?
Friction is independent of speed once an object is moving since faster does not mean more friction.
What is force called rubbing away?
Friction is the force produced when two objects are rubbed. Rough surfaces exhibit more friction while smoother surfaces tend to be almost frictionless.
How friction increased?
With increased surface areas in contact, friction increases.
What happens to friction when normal reaction is increased 2 times?
The friction will also double as Friction= (friction coefficient)(normal reaction)
How can friction be increased?
There are different ways through which helpful friction be increased. The easiest way is using coarser or rougher surface to increase resistance.
How can friction be increased in a given situation?
Friction can be increased in a given situation by increasing the roughness of the surfaces in contact, increasing the force pressing the surfaces together, or by using materials with higher coefficients of friction.
What are ways friction can be increased?
Speed it up!
In what ways friction can be increased?
Friction can be increased by increasing the roughness of the surfaces in contact, increasing the force pressing the surfaces together, or using materials with higher coefficients of friction. Additionally, increasing the surface area in contact can also increase friction.
How friction influenced the invention of the bicycle?
Tires, grips, pedals and brakes needs to have high friction, while all rotating parts needs to have low friction.
What one needs less force to move sliding friction or fluid friction?
Fluid friction.
What two ways can friction be increased by?
movement and heat
What are ways that friction can be increased?
by runnig or go with more speed
Name two ways in which friction can be increased?
Okay 2 ways for the friction to increase is speed and non lubricant
What is an example of friction reducing the efficiency of a machine?
An example of friction reducing the efficiency of a machine is when two moving parts rub against each other, causing heat and wear. This can lead to energy loss and increased maintenance needs, decreasing the overall efficiency of the machine.
