As a friend,

Friction plays a vital role in life on Earth. Without friction almost nothing could be done.

1-It is difficult to walk on a slippery road due to low friction. When a person moves on ice, it becomes difficult to walk due to the low friction of the ice with the shoe. The friction between the sole of a shoe and the surface of the ground prevents us from slipping.

2-In everyday life, friction between the road and the tires of a car helps the driver to control the speed of the vehicle. By applying the brakes, it allows you to slow down the car to a stop.

3-Friction also makes writing possible on paper. When a pencil is used, the friction of the paper causes the lead of the pencil to dry.

As a Foe,
1-The main disadvantage of friction is that it produces heat in various parts of the machines. In this way, useful energy is expended as a loss in thermal energy.

2-Due to friction, you have to exert more power in the machines, to overcome the losses.

3-Opposes the motion, i.e, counteracts the movement, so it takes more energy to move.

4-Due to friction, noise occurs in machines.

Hope it helps you.
