Friction causes wastage of energy and hence increases fuel consumption. Suggest different ways to reduce friction and promote responsible
consumption of fuel and energy.

Friction can be defined as a type of force that prevents two smooth surfaces from sliding together on each other. Friction is a strong force that opposes motion when two surfaces come in contact with each other.

The different methods/ways to reduce friction include;

- Application of lubricant to surfaces

- Streamlined bodies; this goes a long way in preventing friction between two bodies.

- Decrease in weight; reducing the amount of weight on a substance can also help to reduce friction

- Applying wheels to objects that move/roll on the ground.
