  3. Friction • Friction is a force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are touching.

  4. All surfaces have “hills and valleys” which stick to the “hills and valleys” of another surface when they touch.

  5. Friction Factors • Rougher surfaces create more friction. (more hills and valleys) • Greater force creates more friction. (hills and valleys come into closer contact)
