2. LEARNING OUTCOMES:
At the end of this lesson, students will
be able to:
• Explain with examples the existance of
frictional force.
• State the direction of frictional force.
• Carry out an experiment (simulation) to show
how different types of surfaces affect
frictional force.
• Explain the advantages and disadvantages
of friction.

4. • Friction is a force between two
surfaces that are sliding and they
must in contact with each other.
• Examples:
– The tyre of the lorry
is in contact with the
road.

5. • Friction always works in the opposite
direction from the direction of the moving
object.
• Can slows a moving
object down Moving

pressed one against the other
or
