Chapter-Friction of class 8 Science 

Friction

The force which comes to act along the direction tangential to the, 3 Surfaces in contact and opposes the relative motion.

Causes of friction

  • Rough surface
  • Opposing force
  • Application of external force

Types of Friction

There are three types of friction:

  1. Static friction
  2. Dynamic or Kinetic friction
  3. Rolling friction

Relation

Static friction > sliding friction > Rolling friction

Advantge of Friction

  • Walking
  • Sticking two or more bodies
  • Applying brakes
  • Transfer of motion
  • Writing

 Static friction > sliding friction > Rolling friction

Disadvantages of friction

  • opposes the relative motion
  • wear and tear of machinery parts
  • production of heat which damages machinery
