Definition of friction
Friction can be defined as a force which opposes motion.
It is a force which stops/prevents motion. It acts whenever there is motion or tendency for something to move. i.e friction (or frictional force) is absent if there is no motion or if there is no force intending to cause motion.It stops your car when the brake is applied. It prevents your foot from slipping backward when you walk.
Friction can also be defined as a force of attraction between the molecules of two bodies in contact which prevents relative motion between the two bodies…
