When you look at surfaces under a microscope they are pretty rough. Molecules stick out everywhere. So when you slide one surface over another the molecules bump into each other and there are electrical forces tearing the molecules from the surfaces. Of course there are millions of these interactions and the net effect is what we call friction.
What else can I help you with?
Does the nature in contact influence friction force?
Since friction means a contact force, the nature of contact will influence friction force. Smoothness of objects affect the friction force. However, as contact pressure rises, the friction does not rise.
Does the nature of surface in contact influence friction force?
Yes. Roughly speaking, smooth surfaces tend to have less frictional force.
Does wood have a lot of friction?
Wood generally has a moderate level of friction due to its rough texture and absorbent nature. The amount of friction can vary depending on the type of wood, its finish, and the surface it is in contact with.
When an object over a surface the kind of friction that occurs is called friction?
false
Does moving faster increase friction?
No, increasing speed does not directly increase friction. Friction is primarily influenced by the nature of the surfaces in contact and the force pressing them together. However, increasing speed can sometimes generate more heat due to friction, which could in turn affect the friction between surfaces.
What properties affect the force of friction?
The nature of the surface. A measure of this is the coefficient of friction.
What are the forces of gravity and friction?
They are forces of nature..
Does the nature in contact influence friction force?
Since friction means a contact force, the nature of contact will influence friction force. Smoothness of objects affect the friction force. However, as contact pressure rises, the friction does not rise.
What are gravity and friction both forces of?
They are forces of nature.
Does the nature of surface in contact influence friction force?
Yes. Roughly speaking, smooth surfaces tend to have less frictional force.

What is the main force in nature that causes water to flow?
Is it momentum friction electricity or gravity
Does moving faster increase friction?
No, increasing speed does not directly increase friction. Friction is primarily influenced by the nature of the surfaces in contact and the force pressing them together. However, increasing speed can sometimes generate more heat due to friction, which could in turn affect the friction between surfaces.
Does friction depend on the area in contact?
Friction does not directly depend on the area in contact. It primarily depends on the nature of the materials in contact and the force pressing them together. While a larger contact area may provide more opportunities for friction to occur, it does not significantly affect the coefficient of friction between the surfaces.
Why does fluid friction change with the nature of the fluid?
Fluid friction is mostly a question of molecules moving past each other, ANY change in the fluid will effect that.
What does the strength of the force of friction depend?
The strength of the force of friction depends on the nature of the surfaces in contact and the normal force pressing them together. Rougher surfaces and higher normal forces typically result in stronger friction forces.
