What determines the amount of sliding friction?
the ammount of force and the surface the object is sliding against
How can you increase the force of friction of object without changing the surface that you are sliding the object on?
You can change the surface of the object itself
Why is rolling friction is lesser than sliding friction?
due to the less surface area rolling friction is lesser than sliding friction
What kind of friction is the force that sliding objects experience?
Friction refers to the resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another. The kind of friction that sliding objects experience is sliding friction.
What are different forms of friction?
Static friction and sliding friction. Static friction is the force that stops a mass from sliding and sliding friction is the force that slows down an object that is already sliding. Static friction is stronger than sliding friction, and this difference is reflected in different coefficients of friction for sliding and static friction for a given surface.
Rolling Friction is?
Rolling friction is when an object that is rolling/sliding/moving on a surface is slowed down or stopped, because of the friction of the two objects rubbing against each other.
What determines the amount of sliding friction?
the ammount of force and the surface the object is sliding against
What effect does sliding have on the Earth's surface?

What name is given to slipping or sliding surface of parts of the earths surface?
plate tectonic
What work will be done on an object sliding over a surface?
zero
What is a surface wound caused by sliding fall called?
It is a graze.
The breaking and sliding surface between blocks of crust?
the fault
Why kinetic friction is less than sliding friction?
there is more surface area contact with kinetic friction as opposed to sliding friction
What is The breaking and sliding surface between blocks of Crust?
The fault
On mechanical seals what part do you not touch?
Seal ring sliding surface.
What is movement involving a glacier sliding over its underlying surface?
Glaciation.
What are surface finishes that improve sliding motion?
Smooth lubricated surfaces.
