How does friction depend on the surface of bodies in contact?

Open in App

Solution

Friction is a type of force that produces in reaction form when we take action on an object.
Friction force creates when two bodies are rubbed with their surface.
If surfaces are rough, then more friction is produced otherwise surfaces are smooth, then less friction is produced.
It affects the motion of an object because it works by surfaces on an object in opposite direction only.
