- Friction enables us to grip and catch various objects.
- It allows us to walk pleasantly on the surface.
- It helps reduce the speed of moving items.
- It will enable us to write on paper or blackboards.
- Friction prevents objects from moving from their original positions.
Examples to show that friction is a foe:
