Question 76685 • Mad 2017 Phy Sci B -33 SS
Friction depends on how rough the contacting surfaces are and how strongly they press together. Smooth tiles make the surface under the dresser smoother, reducing friction; removing the drawers makes the dresser lighter, reducing the force pressing it against the floor. Wind does not affect the contact friction, and moving more slowly does not generally reduce it.
