Some friction will occur on smooth surfaces because even the smoothest of surfaces isn't completely smooth. There are bumps and cracks on the face of the surface when "zooming in" to a microscopic level.
The surfaces used as the measure of lowest friction are generally wet ice on wet ice. Some materials, such as superfluid Helium III have no measurable friction.
Even seemingly smooth surfaces have microscopic imperfections that make contact points rough at a very small scale. When these contact points slide against each other, the imperfections create friction and resistance, even though the surface appears smooth at a larger scale.
Friction can be reduced by using lubricants or oils between surfaces, using smooth surfaces, and reducing the force pressing the surfaces together. Additionally, materials can be coated with anti-friction coatings or using ball bearings and wheels to reduce friction in mechanical systems.
Some ways to reduce friction include using lubricants such as oil or grease, utilizing ball bearings or roller bearings, and ensuring that surfaces are kept clean and smooth. Additionally, reducing the weight or pressure on surfaces in contact can help reduce friction.
Having a lot of friction can be bad when you want smooth motion between two surfaces, as it can cause heat, wear, and energy loss. In some cases, high friction can also lead to difficulties in moving objects or machinery.
Some friction will occur with seemingly smooth surfaces because at a molecular level, nothing is smooth.
Because on the molecular level, they are not smooth No surface is perfectly smooth and even if it were, many molecules of the two surfaces would get close enough together to interact.

Even though the surface appears smooth.at the microscopic level the surface has some peaks and cracks .when it slides over any other surface friction occurs. the seemingly smooth surface has some friction.

I don't know... but everyone my heart is broken by a guy I like
Friction actually depends on the roughness or smoothness of the surfaces of the object. Even some smooth objects that we usually see everyday (ex. glass, mirrorr,etc.) aren't that smooth when magnified by strong microscopes. They still have rough surfaces therefore they can also have friction. Factors that affect friction: 1.) Adhesion 2.) Surface roughness 3.)The area of an object which is in contact with the surface. The larger the surface in contact, the greater friction. 4.)The texture of the surface and/or the object. The rougher/more uneven the surface/object, the greater the friction. 5.) The weight on the surface. The larger the weight, the greater the friction 6.)The angle of the surface. The greater the angle of the surface, the greater the friction.

It depends on the ramp surfaces because some ramp surfaces have less friction than others and some have more friction than others.
Some examples of relatively high friction surfaces are: sand paper, grass, and asphalt. In general, the rougher the surface, the more friction it has.
