Can Friction occur in a vacuum?

Yes, in general friction can occur in a vacuum, but the only kind of friction that doesn't occur in a vacuum is, of course, air friction. There is no drag force on an object falling in a vacuum.

Does friction acts only on rough surfaces?

no friction applies to all contacting stuffs; air, water, glass, buttcracks. No, friction can be found when two objects of mass touch. Friction can occur between two solid objects, two liquids, and even two gases. It can occur on an global scale, as well as a molecular one. Friction is simply defined as "the resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another."

Does friction only occur on earth?

Friction occurs between two surfaces in contact with each other. While friction is commonly experienced on Earth due to the presence of solid surfaces, it can also occur in other environments, such as in space where interactions between objects can create friction.


Does friction occurs only between solids?

No, friction can occur between any two surfaces in contact, regardless of whether they are both solids. Friction can also occur between a solid and a liquid, a liquid and a liquid, or a solid and a gas.


What causes a major earthquake to occur where plates meet?

The friction between the plates. When the friction is resolved, an earthquake occurs.


Does friction and motion occur at the same time?

Yes, Theres no way that there could be friction without the object moving


Friction and motion occur at the same time?

Friction is a force that opposes motion, so they often occur simultaneously. When an object is in motion, friction acts in the opposite direction to slow down or stop the object. The amount of friction present can impact how an object moves.
