Friction

Question 76684 • Mad 2017 Phy Sci B -33 SS

Which of these actions will increase friction? Select three options.scratching a surface to make it rougherpolishing a surface to make it smootherincreasing the size of a flying objectadding extra weight to an objectplacing oil between two surfaces

Answer
A
scratching a surface to make it rougher
B
polishing a surface to make it smoother
C
increasing the size of a flying object
D
adding extra weight to an object
E
placing oil between two surfaces

Explanation

Scratching a surface makes it rougher, which generally increases friction between surfaces. A larger flying object has more area interacting with the air, so air resistance increases. Adding weight presses surfaces together more strongly, increasing friction; polishing and adding oil generally reduce friction.
