Answer:
When oil, grease or graphite is applied
between the moving part of a machine,
a thin layer is formed there and moving
surfaces do not directly rub against each
other (Fig. 12.13). Interlocking of
irregularities is avoided to a great extent.
Movement becomes smooth. The
substances which reduce friction are
called lubricants.
Lubricating the wheels of a skateboard can increase the speed of a skateboarder because the magnitude of the force limiting the motion of the wheels will have been reduced by the lubricants.
The moving parts (the wheels) of a skateboard are limited by frictional forces. These forces limit the maximum speed that can be reached by a skateboarder.
Lubricating the moving parts will reduce the frictional forces and thus, increase the maximum speed that can be reached.
