It is very rough. But please note that "coefficient of friction" isn't specified for a single substance. Rather, it is specified for the COMBINATION of two different surfaces. It must also be specified if some lubricant is used. For example sandpaper on sandpaper, sandpaper on glass, glass on glass (dry), glass on glass (wet), etc.

What are two examples of two surfaces that have a high coefficient of friction?

Sandpaper and asphalt both have relatively high coefficients of friction.


What 2 surfaces would have the highest coefficient or friction?

Two surfaces with high coefficients of friction are rubber on concrete and sandpaper on wood. These surfaces have rough textures that increase friction and resistance to sliding.


What are the materials with highest coefficient of friction?

Materials with high coefficients of friction include rubber, sandpaper, and concrete. These materials create strong resistance to sliding due to their textured surfaces or high adhesive properties.


Which two surfaces would have the highest cofficient of friction?

Two rough surfaces with high friction coefficients would have the highest coefficient of friction. For example, rubber on concrete or sandpaper on wood would typically result in a high coefficient of friction due to the roughness of the surfaces.


Examples of high friction?

Example of high friction is a really rough surface like sandpaper.


What is high in friction but is not useful?

Sandpaper is high in friction but is not considered useful in terms of being helpful in a general sense.


Why could you not slide very quickly on a slide cover with sandpaper?

Sandpaper is designed to be a high-friction material. High friction on a slide means less downward force, which means less acceleration and less velocity.


What objects causes high friction?

Objects that tend to cause high friction include rubber, sandpaper, and Velcro. These substances have surfaces that grip tightly when in contact with other objects, leading to increased resistance and friction.


How does sandpaper slow thing down?

All materials have a property called the coeffecient of kinetic friction. When this property is high, a higher friction force resists the motion of objects across the surface. Sandpaper has a higher coefficient of kinetic friction as compared to something like ice. This is because ice is smooth whereas the surface of sandpaper is very rough which increases the friction it causes.


What types of surfaces create the most friction?

Rough surfaces with irregularities and high coefficients of friction, such as sandpaper or concrete, create the most friction due to increased contact points and resistance to sliding. Smooth surfaces, like ice or polished metal, generally have lower friction due to reduced contact area and smoother interactions between surfaces.


Why do materials have different coefficient of friction?

Different materials have different coefficients of friction because the materials have different microscopic bumps and valleys which cause the friction to begin with. Coefficients of friction are constant for each material.


How do you raise and lower frictional forces?

You can increase frictional forces by roughening the surfaces in contact, increasing the weight pressing the surfaces together, or using materials with higher coefficients of friction. To decrease frictional forces, you can use lubricants, reduce the weight pressing the surfaces together, or choose materials with lower coefficients of friction.
