Instructions

Just press the green flag. Hello guys, @SwiftCoder09 here. This is one more project where I invited Pico to talk about another topic. Links you can visit: - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friction - https://www.worldatlas.com/what-are-4-types-of-friction.html - https://byjus.com/physics/friction/

Description

Thank you, guys, for watching! Key takeaways: - Friction is a force that opposes the relative motion between two bodies in contact with each other. - It is caused when the irregularities between the objects get interlocked. - It can be increased by increasing the number of irregularities, like in the case of shoes (with grooves/spikes/treads on their soles). This helps in giving firmness between 2 objects. - It can be reduced by lubricating the surfaces, i.e., using substances like lubricants (in case of vehicle parts) and boric powder (in case of carrom board and the coins/striker), thus filling up the gaps between the irregularities and reducing the friction, thus allowing the body(s) to move smoothly against each other. In-project credits for images from the web. ChatGPT for topic suggestion, and this project is based on a bit of the outline suggested by the GPT. Please like, love, and follow @SwiftCoder09.
