whatever force would keep the object moving were it unstill...mostly Gravity it kind of depends of what your studying and i know that doesn't help you much.....Sorry

How does friction harm us?

Friction harms us because when our hands or any part of our body rub against the surface, it causes static friction.For another example check the soles of your shoes.

Why when you push an object across a desk the work done is not equal to the change in gravitational potential energy?

In this case, you are not doing work against the force of gravity, but against the force of friction.


What is a example of how friction can work for us?

Automobile brakes and clutches require friction. We also need friction between the tyres and the road when we accelerate or when we brake or when we turn a corner.


How much friction thick carpet produces?

It doesn't work that way - friction is not something that is "produced". The way it works is that you have a coefficient of friction for two surfaces that are in contact. Then you use that coefficient of friction, and multiply it by the normal force, to calculate the actual FORCE of friction.For the coefficient of friction, you need to specify a PAIR of substances; for example, carpet against glass would probably have less friction than carpet against rubber.
