Question

6. Why do we spread some talcum powder on a carrom board before we start playing?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The result of smoothening is that friction between the striker and the board decreases and striker slides smoothly on the surface, not losing its momentum too quickly. Hence, we can say that sprinkling of powder on the carrom board reduces friction and makes sliding smoother and easier.
