Forces and Friction

Mrs Farooq

In our spectacular Science lesson we understood how friction effects movement. Children conducted an experiment testing five different materials including sandpaper, felt, paper, cellophane and bubble wrap. They found some interesting results which the children will answer below as challenge questions 😊 Children found that friction does indeed effect movement and helps to slow things down. They also discovered that certain weather conditions cause less friction to occur such as ice and rain. Overall, a fantastic experiment and brilliant results! Watch the video below to find out more 😊

Which material caused the most amount of friction and why?
Which material caused the least amount of friction and why?

    sandpaper has the most because it got a fast friction and is quick
    paper has a least because its really slow that allows any source

    When we tested it I was very excited but when we were rubbing our hands it was very hot because it is warm. But sometimes when it is winter or rain,snow I do rub my hands it is smooth for me and warm. But also it is wonderful hygiene for your hands too make it warm and Alternatively it does really hurt your hands a little bit when you do it for a very long hour or time. And when we were drawing our hands for GD in our books it was fun because we got too label it and colour it for example. When i was labeling it I was staring at the steam of the hands because it was very hot that make the hands.

    I enjoyed it and sand paper had the most forces because its rough and tough and the least one was paper because its smooth and soft.

    I really love doing this, because when I am cold because of the cold weather I rub my hands slowly, and it feels soft and smooth, and my hand does not turn red, but when I learned about this now, when I rub my hands really fast and speedy my hands very hot like it is burning and it turns really red

    Sandpaper had the most friction because the sandpaper was rough and had hard particles.

    the sand paper has the most friction and the paper has the least friction

    I enjoyed it so much but the sandpaper had the most because it was working when we tried. But the paper was the least one because it didn’t slide and was very slow.

    Sand paper has the most forces than paper and paper has the least forces than sand paper. ✔️🤩🎉💖

    The sand paper has the most and the least one is paper
