Question

describe friction , its advantage and disadvantage and how it can be reduce ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other. There are several types of friction: Dry friction is a force that opposes the relative lateral motion of two solid surfaces in contact. 

Advantages:

1. It is becomes difficult to walk on a slippery road due to low friction. When we move on ice, it     becomes difficult to walk due to low friction of ice.

2. We can not fix nail in the wood or wall if there is no friction. It is friction which holds the nail.

3. A horse can not pull a cart unless friction furnishes him a secure Foothold.

4. We can write on a paper or on a board.

5. Friction helps in applying the brakes.

6. It helps in walking on floor.

7. Coffee mug stays on the dashboard

8. Shuffling across a carpet to shock someone

9. Draging of atmosphire with earth is possible

10. Helps to pevents the life on earth by burning astroids.

Disadvantages:

. The main disadvantage of friction is that it produces heat in various parts of machines. In this way     some useful energy is wasted as heat energy.

2. Due to friction we have to exert more power in machines.

3. It opposes the motion. 

4. Due to friction, noise is also produced in machines.

5. Due to friction, engines of automobiles consume more fuel which is a money loss. 

6. Machine efficency is decreased: energy input is lost to heat

7. Getting shocked by doorknobs

8. Rug burn

9. It counteracts movement and so it takes more energy to move, it can cause unwanted heat (e.g. in machine parts), and it wears things out like shoes.

10. Forest fires are caused due to friction between branches of trees

methods of reducing friction:

Make the surfaces smoother. ...

Lubrication is another way to make a surface smoother.

Make the object more streamlined.

Reduce the forces acting on the surfaces.

Reduce the contact between the surfaces.

Roll the bodies instead of sliding them.

Answer 2

$\huge {\bf{\blue{Answer:-}}}$

Advantages of friction:-

It is because of friction that we can walk, drive, open doors, turn tap and write.Screw and nails do not slip of because of the friction between the wood and the metal surface of the screw .

Disadvantages of friction:-

Friction causes the moving parts in machinery and automobiles to heat up this results in wastage of energy and fuel. Fiction also causes wear and Tear of the moving parts .
