It would not be a perfect answer if I said yes because you did not assume that if the body was moving in vacumn. If its not, like for example it is moving on an ice block on the surface of the earth then the object still has gravity and the air friction acting on it. Even the molecules of the ice's surface attract the surface of that object it is in contact with.

So if I say that the object is in space then it would be a incredibly correct answer to say yes, there are no force acting on the body.

What is the coefficient of friction between a perfectly smooth body and a very rough body?

The coefficient of friction between a perfectly smooth body and a very rough body would be close to zero because a smooth body has no surface irregularities to create friction with the rough body. Friction occurs due to the interaction of surface irregularities, so if one surface is perfectly smooth, there would be minimal friction.


What force is acting on a body moving with uniform speed on a perfectly smooth road?

1) There are always frictional forces, which by themselves would slow the car down. 2) Since we are assuming that the car is moving at a uniform speed, there must be another force to compensate for the friction, and in the opposite direction (pulling the car forward). This force is related to the effort done by the engine.


Would a smooth even surface weather faster than an uneven broken surface?

An uneven broken surface would generally weather faster than a smooth even surface due to increased surface area and exposure to environmental factors. The irregularities in the broken surface provide more opportunities for weathering processes, such as erosion and chemical breakdown, to occur compared to a smooth surface.

Would there be more friction between A snowboard gliding across snow or moving a box on carpet and why?

There would be more friction between the box moving on carpet. This is because the rough surface of the carpet creates more resistance and friction compared to the smoother surface of the snow. Snowboards are designed to glide easily on snow due to the reduced friction between the smooth base of the snowboard and the snow.

Why does some friction occur with seemingly smooth surfacers?

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.

Where does boiling occur?

Boiling occurs on the surface of a liquid that has reached its boiling point. This also includes on the surface of any imperfections in the water, known as nucleation sites. These imperfections in water are often harmless, and are any other small particles that are in it. These imperfections are responsible for the rolling surface of a boiling pot of water. The water at a nucleation site expands into a gas, and bubbles to the surface of the water. In a perfectly distilled pot of water, in a perfectly smooth sided pot (tiny microscopic scratches in the surface of a pot can be nucleation sites too) the water would only steam at the surface, and no bubbles would form in it.

Why the clam shell is not smooth?

A clam shell is not smooth because being smooth would decrease friction between a clam and the surface it lives on. With low friction, a clam would go places it would not want to go.


It is possible to make a frictional less surface on which a ball will roll without end?

It is impossible to create a frictionless surface upon which a ball will roll without stopping. This is firstly because no two surfaces have a fritional constant of zero in that there is no surface which is perfectly smooth. Also, even if there were a true frictionless surface, a ball would not be able to roll along it forever due to air resistance.
