Science > Physics > Friction > Applications of Friction In this article, we shall understand why does kinetic friction is smaller than the static friction and why it is easier to roll than solid. We shall also study some everyday examples in which friction is used. To produce relative motion between two bodies in contact […]

Science > Physics > Friction > Concept of Friction Friction or force of friction is a force which comes into existence when two bodies in contact have relative motion or tending to have relative with respect to each other and oppose the motion. Characteristics of Friction: Force of friction is always opposites to the force […]
