What is friction and how does it affect the motion of objects?
What is friction and how does it affect the motion of objects?
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?
What are the causes of friction?
Friction is caused by the irregularities on the two surfaces in contact.
