  1. Friction 5th Grade Science Forces and Motion 2013 M.B. Pardington, BPS

  2. What is friction? Frictionis the rubbing of two surfaces. It is the force of two surfaces coming in contact with each other.

  3. You can make friction very easily:

  4. Rub your hands together. Picture source: http://www.imsa.edu/programs/kidsinstitute/wheels/fi4.php

  5. Do you feel heat? That is the result of friction.

  6. Check out this website on friction: http://www.fearofphysics.com/Friction/frintro.html

  7. We CAN, however, use some things to minimizefriction: Oil (lubricant) Ball bearings Water Polished metal (slide)

  8. WatchBill Nye the Science Guy: Motion and Frictionfor more information.

  9. What would it be like to have nofriction? Watch the “Magic Schoolbus Plays Ball” video to find out.
