Question

Water offers _______ fluid friction as compared to honey.
A. Higher
B. Lower
C. Same
D. Zero

Answer 1

Hint:Friction is the force exerted by two surfaces moving (or attempting to slide) over one another. When you try to push a book across the floor, for example, friction makes it harder. Friction always acts in the opposite direction from where the item is going or attempting to move. A moving item is always slowed by friction.

Complete answer:
When a body (such as a ball, tyre, or wheel) rolls over a surface, rolling resistance, also known as rolling friction or rolling drag, is the force that resists the motion. It is mostly produced by non-elastic effects, which means that when the pressure is released, not all of the energy required for deformation (or movement) of the wheel, roadbed, and so on is recovered. Hysteresis losses (described below) and persistent (plastic) deformation of the item or surface are two examples (e.g. soil).

It's worth noting that the friction between the wheel and the surface causes energy to be lost. Although some academics include this word in rolling resistance, others argue that it should be addressed separately since it is caused by the applied torque to the wheel and the resulting slip between the wheel and the ground, which is referred to as slip loss or slip resistance.

Water, having less density than honey, offers lower fluid friction as compared to honey. Because honey flows more slowly than water. It's because any fluid's molecules experience internal friction termed viscosity, which we refer to as thickness or resistance to flow. As a result, honey molecules travel slower than water molecules, making honey appear thicker than water.

Note:Furthermore, only the so-called slip resistance incorporates friction, thus the term "rolling friction" is rather misleading. Rolling resistance is frequently represented as a coefficient times the normal force, similar to sliding friction. This rolling resistance coefficient is often significantly lower than the coefficient of sliding friction.
