it doont help no science world

OpenStudy (518nad):

science just tries to understand it

OpenStudy (girlstudy):

Is there a way it can help with future inventions?

OpenStudy (518nad):

um static friction and kinetic friction is taken into account for many application

OpenStudy (518nad):

you can use it to aid actions or they can hurt some kind of actions, so u will try to minimize it

OpenStudy (518nad):

like for example when ur building ice skates or wheels or anything

OpenStudy (osprey):

this is a massive question. I'll pick an eg at random - that of electrostatics, specifically charging by FRICTION. This principle is used in a VAN DE GRAAFF generator which is capable of achieving very high voltages. Those voltages can, in turn be used to accelerate charged particles, which can then by used in science research. http://perendis.webs.com
