Friction Quiz

Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other.

The different types of friction are dry friction, fluid friction, lubricated friction, skin friction, and internal friction.

Dry friction is a force that opposes the relative lateral motion of two solid surfaces in contact.

<p>Fluid friction describes the friction between layers of a viscous fluid that are moving relative to each other.</p> Signup and view all the answers
