The coating surfaces with oil reduce friction between the surfaces.

Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

Friction is defined as force that acts between the two surfaces and it is generated when two surfaces slides over each other.

When oil is coated on a surface, it sticks to the surface. The fluid friction between the oil and either surface is lower than that between uncoiled surfaces. So, the coating surfaces with oil will reduce friction between the surfaces.

Conclusion:

Hence, the coating surfaces with oil will reduce friction between the surfaces.
