Can you think of another way the egyptians might have tried to reduce friction to move the heavy blocks?

They could have moved the block through water, which would be Fluid Friction, and makes it easier to move.

What kinds of substance reduce friction?
Friction is the act of one surface rubbing against another. To reduce friction, use something that offers a small amount of friction. Smoother substances reduce friction. A way to reduce friction is to use something which offers a small amount of friction. For example, you could use something like plastic or glass. Water, most liquids and different types of oil reduce friction. Powder, oil and grease are used in between surfaces to also reduce friction.
Does sand reduce friction?
No, sand does not reduce friction but increase friction.
How can you reduce and increase friction?
Lubrication to reduce friction. To increase friction step on the brakes.
What are the ways of increasing and reducing friction?
TO REDUCE FRICTION: We can use fine powder on the carrom board to reduce friction
How do you reduce the friction and vice versa?
Reduce the friction . . .Apply lubricant to the surfaces in contact, or reduce the mutual pressure.Friction the reduce . . .The phrase has no physical significance.

Do wheels reduce friction?
yes because when they brake the friction is caused to reduce

What kind of friction can help reduce friction?
I never heard of friction reducing friction. You can reduce friction by using lubricants, as well as using wheels (as in ball bearings).
How does oil reduce air friction?
Oil is mainly used to reduce friction between contacting surface, e.g., metal on metal - not to reduce air friction.
Why must you not put oil on the brake blocks of a bicycle?
Oil makes things "slip", it is a lubricant, it reduces friction. Brake blocks work by "gripping" the wheel rim and stop the wheel turning using high friction between the block and the rim. Placing oil on the brake blocks will reduce their efficiency and if the rider can not stop quickly they may run into things.
What are the factors that reduce in case of friction?
the factors that reduce in case of friction are the velocity and acceleration.
What does a bit of oil reduce in science?
Oil is used to reduce friction.
