Answer:

ball bearing,polishing,lubricant,s streamlining

Explanation:

Methods for decreasing friction:

Make the surfaces smoother. Rough surfaces produce more friction and smooth surfaces reduce friction.

Lubrication is another way to make a surface smoother. A lubricant is a slippery substance designed to reduce the friction between surfaces.

Make the object more streamlined. A streamline shape is one that allows air or water to flow around it easily, offering the least resistance.

Reduce the forces acting on the surfaces. The stronger the forces acting on the surfaces, the higher the friction, so reducing the forces would reduce the friction.

Reduce the contact between the surfaces. Spheres are the best shape for reducing friction because very little of a spherical object is in contact with the other surface.

Answer:

Methods for Reducing Friction

☆ Moving parts of machines are covered with oil or grease, which make the effect of friction less.

☆ The surfaces are highly polished, to eliminate the irregularities thus making the surface smooth and reducing friction to a great extent.

☆ Fluid friction is reduced by using streamlined shapes in airplanes or ships.

☆ Use of wheels between surfaces moving over each other reduces friction as rolling friction is less than the sliding friction.

☆ Ball bearings are used in machines to reduce friction. These are tiny steel balls often placed between moving parts of machines which reduces friction and saves a lot of energy.
