Why does a ice-hockey puck have less friction than a ball rolling on the ground?

An ice-hockey puck has less friction than a ball rolling on the ground because ice surfaces are smoother and provide less resistance compared to the irregularities on the ground that increase friction. Additionally, the material of the ice-hockey puck and the ice surface are designed to have low friction properties to allow for smoother and faster movement on the ice.


What surface will a hockey puck go faster on plastic ice ceramic cement or wood?

An ice hockey puck travels smoother and faster on ice, floor and street hockey pucks are designed for use on certain surface types and perform better on those specific surfaces.


How can we make a smooth surface even smoother?

by cleaning the surface


What is the playing surface of ice hockey called?

If you mean in the context of "the field" or "the court" for other sports, then "the ice" would be the proper name for the playing surface in ice hockey. ^^^^ In other words, the rink.


How does the surface of an object affect friction?

the smoother a surface is, the less friction it produces.


Does friction increase when the surface is smoother?

No, friction actually decreases when the surface is smoother because there are fewer irregularities for the surfaces to interact with, resulting in less resistance. Smoother surfaces allow for easier sliding or rolling of objects.


The radius of a hockey puck is 1.5 inches. what is the area of the surface of the hockey puck?

The surface area also depends on the thickness of the puck.

Which force will decrease if the surface of the ramp is made smoother?

Friction is the force that will decrease if the surface of the ramp is made smoother. Smooth surfaces reduce friction by allowing objects to slide more easily with less resistance.
