Question

Difference between 3 types of friction?

Answer 1

Hi friend,

There are four types of friction

* static friction

* sliding friction

* rolling friction

* fluid friction

Static, sliding, and rolling friction occur between solid surfaces. Fluid friction occurs in liquids and gases.

Difference between rolling and sliding friction:

When a body slides over another body, the resistance faced is due to sliding friction. On the other hand if a body rolls over another body, the resistance offered is a case of rolling friction.
