Which friction force is exerted by the fluids?
Viscous force. This is the frictional force between layers in relative motion
What is an upward force exerted by water and other fluids?
The upward force exerted by fluids is called buoyancy. It is dependent on the weight of the object in question.
What is the force between two surfaces in relative motion called?
Named as frictional force in case of solids and named as viscous force in case of fluids, ie liquids and gases.
Why is frictional force called a perverse force?
because it is is a preserve force
Which term is pulling force of exerted by solids?
The force exerted by solids when pulled is called tensile force.

When a force is exerted on a box an equal and opposite force is exerted by the box. These forces are called?
These forces are called frictional forces. (: My source is the Physical Science with Earth science textbook, Chapter 3. (:

What force opposes gravity and slows down an object falling through the air?
drag force (frictional force exerted by air) or air reststance
What force in fluids oppeses motion?
Viscous force This is nothing but the frictional force between the adjacent layes of fluid in relative motion.
What is the force between two surfaces in relative motion called?
Named as frictional force in case of solids and named as viscous force in case of fluids, ie liquids and gases.
How can one consider a frictional force on a track as constant while frictional forces are non conservative?
This is a very good question. A conservative force is defined as a force that doesn't remove energy from a system. Such forces as a spring force are conservative. However, wherever a frictional force is exerted, heat is produced. It takes energy to make heat, and the energy comes from the kinetic energy of whatever objects have frictional forces exerted upon them. A frictional force will eventually remove all of the kinetic energy from a system. However, a frictional force is constant. The force of friction is defined as the coefficient of friction times mass times the gravitational constant. (The coefficient of friction is represented as the greek letter mu). Regardless of the remaining Kinetic energy in a system, the frictional force will not change, thus a frictional force is constant, but not conservative. Hope this helps whoever asked this question! --An AP PHYSICS STUDENT
