Question

Powder applied to a carromboard reduces friction.
(TRUE/FALSE)​

Answer 1

Answer:true

Sprinkling of powder on the carrom board reduces friction..

Explanation:

We sprinkle powder on carrom board to make the surface of the board smooth. This reduces the friction between the surface of the carrom board, the striker and the coins. As a result, the coins and the striker can move easily on the carrom board.

Answer 2

$\bf{\underline{\red{Question:-}}}$

✓✓Powder applied to a carromboard reduces friction.

• (TRUE/FALSE)

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

⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀❍  $\bf\:True$

$\bf{\underline{\green{Explanation:-}}}$

$\bf\implies$Yes, It is true powder applied to a carrom board reduce friction.

❍There is a friction between the wood of the carom board and the coins.

❍Powders are generally sprinkled on the board in order to reduce the friction between the board and the coins.

❍This acts as a lubricant and ensures smooth movement of the coins throughout the board.

❍As a result, the coins and the striker can move easily on the carrom board.

❍❍ Other ways to reduce friction:-

$\bf\star\:Putting\:Oil:-$

$\bf\longrightarrow$Oil is applied on hinges of door .This reduce friction between door and wall and door opens smoothly .

$\bf\star\:Using\:ball\:Bearings:-$

• Ball bearings are small metal balls placed between moving parts of a machine.

• When the machine rotates,these also rotate reducing friction.

• Example-They are used in fans Wheels also produce some friction when central hole rubs with axle.

• But if we attach ball bearings,these reduce friction even further and make it easier to move.
