Friction is not required in sports like swimming and diving because it is beneficial for athletes to move through water with minimum resistance. Additionally, in sports like gymnastics and figure skating, reduced friction allows for smoother and more controlled movements during routines.

What are the three basic laws of friction and how do they apply to sports?
The laws of friction state that frictional force is directly proportional to the normal force and independent of the contact area. The force required to overcome static friction is greater than the force required to overcome kinetic friction. Friction acts in the opposite direction of the motion or intended motion of an object. In sports, these laws affect player movements such as running, stopping, and changing direction. Athletes must consider these laws to optimize their performance, for example, by maximizing grip in activities like sprinting or cutting.
Is friction required while standing straight?
No, friction is not required for standing straight. Gravity and the interaction between your body and the ground provide the necessary support to maintain an upright position without the need for friction.
What does the friction graph reveal about the relationship between surface roughness and the force required to overcome friction?
The friction graph shows that as surface roughness increases, the force required to overcome friction also increases. This indicates that there is a positive relationship between surface roughness and the force needed to overcome friction.
Which has a maximum value kinetic friction or static friction?
The maximum value of static friction is typically greater than the maximum value of kinetic friction. Static friction is the force required to overcome the initial resistance of an object at rest, while kinetic friction is the force required to keep an object in motion.
When is friction not so useful?
When you drive a car and stop it is because of friction you stopped. If there was no friction your car won't stop and will slide. Friction also helps with waking, if there was no friction with every step you take you would slip. Friction lets your foot stay in one spot while you move the other foot. Ice has no friction so it is hard to walk on and hard to brake on (if driving a car.)

yes

How does static friction play a role in different sports?
action and reaction, the ball moves with force, it stops with friction .

Why is friction not as useful in some winter sports?
Ice skating does not require any friction because the skater needs to glide on the ice and if there was any friction on ice the skater would have trouble to skate smoothly on the ice. That is why ice skating does not require any friction at all from my perspective.
Can someone tell you 5 sports in which Friction is used and 5 where it is not used?
track. anything that has to do with running. you use friction when running. but as for the 5 without use of friction then i have no idea
How does gravity and friction affect sports?
This is because it slows you down and it means that you will get hot feet
What is kinetic friction and static friction?
Friction is the resistance to movement of an object pressing/resting/moving on a surface. It's not intuitively obvious but the standing still friction and moving friction are different. Assume you have a block of wood resting on a tabletop. The amount of force required to make the block begin to move (static friction) is greater than the force required to keep it moving (kinetic friction) after it has begun to move.
