Method of decreasing friction:By polishing: Friction between two surfaces can be reduced by polishing them. The interlocking and projections are minimized by this method.

Ball-bearing:  As the rolling friction less than the sliding friction consequently in rotating machinery, the shafts are fixed on the ball bearing so that the friction can be reduced considerably. For example-the free wheel of a cycle, the axle of a motorcar, the shafts of the motor dynmo etc. are provided with ball-bearing.

<span><span><span>Lubricants: </span>Friction between two surfaces can be decreased by using lubricants. A lubricant is a substance (a solid or a liquid) which forms a thin layer between the two surfaces in contact. It also fills the depressions present in the surfaces of contact and reduces friction considerably. In light machinery thin oils with low viscosity are used, in heavy and fast moving machinery thick oils and solutes (grease) are used.
</span><span>Streamline<span>: </span>The friction due to air is reduced by making the automobiles streamline.</span></span>

Methods of increasing friction:By making the surface rough friction can be increased. Examples of increasing friction-the tires of a motor car and bicycles are made rough to increase the friction .when a ground or surface become slippery after rain or water splashing it is made rough by spreading sand to increase the friction.

Why is the solar system commonly represented as a scale model?
topjm [15]
The actual size of the Solar system is too big to show without making a much smaller model. If someone wants to see the orientation of the planets a model has to be made so we can see it without flying out too space.

As the temperature of an object rises, so does the
nikklg [1K]
C. The object is not in motion, ruling out A. We are not adding mass in any way, nor does adding heat to object increase its mass, therefore also ruling out B. Finally, we are not changing the object's position in such a way that gives it a higher ability to do work, ruling out D.

Oh lord help me please
Zina [86]

Answer: Friction

Explanation:

The friction force is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it. There are at least two types of friction force - sliding and static friction. Though it is not always the case, the friction force often opposes the motion of an object.
