NCERT Solutions Class 8 Science Chapter 9 Friction

Have you ever wondered why when an object moves across the surface of another object it tends to come to a rest position without any external force acting on it. Have you not watched a ball roll along the ground only to come to a halt after a while? What makes a wet and smooth surface so difficult to walk on? This chapter will give you answers to such questions. Friction chapter class 8, explains friction and examines the reasons for it and its effects on various surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Friction is a force that opposes the relative motion or tendency of such motion between two surfaces in contact.

Friction is necessary for many daily activities, like walking, driving, and holding objects. Without friction, we would not have control over movement or be able to stop motion easily.

Fluid friction occurs when objects move through liquids or gases. It opposes the motion of objects moving in fluids, such as airplanes in air or boats in water.
