what is the importance of friction between rocks of the ground​

Sagot :

Answer:

Friction always slows a moving object down. ... Friction can be a useful force because it prevents our shoes slipping on the pavement when we walk and stops car tyres skidding on the road. When you walk, friction is caused between the tread on shoes and the ground. This friction acts to grip the ground and prevent sliding.

Answer:

Most earthquakes are caused by sudden movement on preexisting faults. An understanding of the frictional forces between rock surfaces is important for understanding earthquake behavior.
