NOTE

LUBRICATION SYSTEM

Friction is the force that opposes the relative motion or tendency of such motion of two surfaces in contact. It acts parallel to the surfaces and opposes the motion or tendency of motion.

Merits of friction

  1. Friction provides the necessary grip between the tires of a vehicle and the road surface, allowing for safe acceleration, deceleration, and cornering.
  2. Friction prevents slipping and sliding, providing stability for walking, running, and other forms of locomotion.
  3. Friction allows us to control the movement of objects by providing resistance. For example, it enables us to hold objects firmly in our hands and manipulate them with precision.
  4. Friction is crucial in various engineering applications, such as brakes, clutches, and fasteners, where controlled friction is necessary for proper functioning.

Demerits of friction

  1. Friction results in the conversion of kinetic energy into heat energy, leading to energy loss in mechanical systems. This energy loss can reduce the efficiency of machines and systems.
  2. Friction between moving parts can cause wear and tear over time, leading to the need for maintenance and replacement of components.
  3. Friction opposes motion, so it can limit the maximum speed achievable by vehicles and other moving objects.
  4. In some cases, friction can produce undesirable effects, such as noise and vibration, which can be problematic in precision machinery and equipment.
