Friction is an opposing force that acts between surfaces in contact and it slows down the motion of objects.

How does the nature of surfaces affect friction?

Smooth surfaces have less friction, while rough surfaces have greater friction.

What are the causes of friction?

Friction is caused by the irregularities on the two surfaces in contact.

How does the pressing force on an object affect friction?

Greater pressing force results in greater friction.

How does the mass of an object affect friction?

Greater mass of an object leads to greater friction.
