If a slide had high friction, it would not function well as a slide. Things would either slow down during their descent or would stop completely (if the coefficient of friction were sufficiently large).
You would either stop in mid slide, burn your bottom,
or shred the seat of your pants.

Which surface friction is the highest carpet plastic wood marble?
carpet has the most fictionThis cannot be answered really. Friction requires 2 surfaces in contact with each other . Rubber on Wood, has a high coefficient of friction, but plastic on wood has a low coefficient of friction. You must state , the make of the material you are going to use to slide over the Carpet, or Plastic, or Wood. Also , different types of carpet or plastic or wood will have very different friction coefficients. Example Nylon carpet is very easy to slide things along, but wool or cotton carpet is a very different story. There are many types of plastic which are rubbery in nature and they offer a lot of frictional resistance.
A 21.2 kg child descends a slide 3.5 m high and reaches the bottom with a speed of 2.1 ms How much thermal energy due to friction was generated in this process?
The potential energy he lost on the descent = M g H = (21.2) (9.8) (3.5) = 727.16 joulesThe kinetic energy he had at the bottom = 1/2 M V2 = (0.5) (21.2) (2.1)2 = 46.746 joulesThe missing energy = (727.16 - 46.746) = 680.414 joules caused heating of the slide and the kid's pants.
Which part of a light microscope would most likely be damaged if the coarse adjustment is improperly used while a specimen is being observed under high power?
The coarse adjustment knob controls the stage's vertical position in relation to the objective lenses. If improperly used under high power, it can damage the objective lens or the slide due to the rapid movement.
Why do slides break on high power?
The high-power objective lens rests very close to the slide so adjustments such as focusing (which moves the lens up and down) could potentially push the lens right through the slide. It's usually advisable to take your eyes off the eyepieces and actually get to an angle that allows you to watch the space between the lens and slide when changing to the high power to avoid breaking the slide if the lens is already too low.
2 ways to increase friction?
find a materials with a high coefficient of static friction and use them against each other ( like rubber dry concrete ) and bound them to the object and the surface it rests on. Increase the normal force by adding mass on the object or applying a perpendicular force to the surface of the object.

What would happen if the slide had high friction?
It wouldnt be a slide. It would be a larger chair depending on the moleculer compounds involed in the changing plastyic compound. If it is a metal the mole ratio will cause the slide to become abnormally hard. 8====D
Why could you not slide very quickly on a slide cover with sandpaper?
Sandpaper is designed to be a high-friction material. High friction on a slide means less downward force, which means less acceleration and less velocity.
What would happen to planes if there was no friction?
they would suddenly shoot forward at extremly high speeds.
If you go sking do you need high or low friction explain?
When skiing, you need low friction to glide smoothly over the snow. High friction would cause you to feel resistance and make it difficult to slide across the surface. A low friction surface allows you to maintain control and move efficiently.
Is sliding got high or low friction?
Low friction is made when you rub smooth surfaces together, and they slide easily. For example, a melting ice cube would easily slide across a glass table because there is low friction. In contrast, high friction is when there is high resisting force. For example, if you rub velcro across a rug, there would be high friction, and it would be more difficult than sliding the ice across the glass table.
How does friction affect shoes?
Low friction is slippery high friction has good traction. In the sport of Curling (gliding those heavy granite stones on ice towards a bullseye) one shoe has low friction (to slide on the ice) the other has high friction (to propel the player).
What is a Example of negative friction?
An example of negative friction is when a sled on a perfectly icy slope has too little friction to slow it down, causing it to slide uncontrollably at high speeds.
Does shoelace have high or low friction?
Shoelaces generally have low friction, making them easier to tie and untie. This low friction allows them to slide through the eyelets of shoes smoothly without getting stuck.
A 21.2 kg child descends a slide 3.5 m high and reaches the bottom with a speed?
The answer depends on the incline (slope) of the slide. And, if you want a more realistic answer, a measure of the friction between the child and the slide.
What surfaces around the house produce high friction?
Surfaces such as carpet, rubber, sandpaper, and rough concrete tend to produce high friction due to their rough textures that create resistance when objects slide or move across them.
What are examples when high friction is not useful?
Well, honey, high friction is about as useful as a screen door on a submarine when you're trying to slide into home base during a baseball game. It's also about as helpful as a chocolate teapot when you're trying to cool down your tea. In simpler terms, high friction is a real pain in the rear when you're trying to zip around on an ice rink or slide down a playground slide.
Which two surfaces would have the highest cofficient of friction?
Two rough surfaces with high friction coefficients would have the highest coefficient of friction. For example, rubber on concrete or sandpaper on wood would typically result in a high coefficient of friction due to the roughness of the surfaces.
