Question

define friction. write two cause of friction​

Answer 1

Answer:

Scientists are not completely sure what causes friction; however it is thought to be caused by the interactions between the tiny bumps on surfaces as they rub against each other. The bumps on each surface bend and exert a force on each other making it hard for the surfaces to slip over each other.

Causes of Friction: Friction is a force that resists the relative motion between two objects or materials. The causes of this resistive force are molecular adhesion, surface roughness, and deformations. Adhesion is the molecular force resulting when two materials are brought into close contact with each other.
