Definition of friction
1. Friction is the resistance that one surface or object encounters when
moving over another or a force that slows motion and dampens energy.
2. Friction is the force that resists relative motion between two bodies in
contact.
3. Friction is a force which causes the motion between two surfaces to be
reduced.

Types of Friction
1. Static friction: friction between two objects that are not moving relative
to each other
2. Rolling Friction - associated with the rolling of a wheel or something
circular along a surface.
3. Kinetic or Sliding friction is friction where an object slides, or rubs
against, another surface.
4. Fluid friction is the friction of something going through any type of liquid
or air.
