Friction: The resistance encountered when one object is moved in contact with another.

The four types of friction The four types of friction - Static - Static - Sliding - Sliding - Rolling - Rolling - Fluid - Fluid

Static friction: Friction between two surfaces that are not moving past each other. Static friction: Friction between two surfaces that are not moving past each other.

Sliding Friction: The force that opposes the motion of two surfaces sliding past each other. Sliding Friction: The force that opposes the motion of two surfaces sliding past each other.

Video! Ice Storm (A world without Friction) –This is why you should not travel in an ice storm.

Rolling friction: The friction between a rolling object and the surface it rolls on. Rolling friction: The friction between a rolling object and the surface it rolls on.

“Why does a golf ball have dimples?”

A golf ball has dimples to make it more air resistant.

A golf ball has dimples to make it less resistant to the air. –Thus travel further and straighter.

No Dimples

Those large caps on trucks help decrease fluid friction with the air.

How can you reduce friction when it’s unwanted?

Answer! Engine oil is very important to keep pistons lubricated. This reduces friction and thus heat which can expand metal and cause damage.

There is no friction in space. A space vehicle will travel in the same direction at the same speed until….
