Fill in the blank: Friction applies to all states of matter in the gas state it is called resistance and in a liquid it's called resistance. Air resistance can be used to slow the fall of an object. Parachutes are usually made out of light, strong fabric, originally silk, now most commonly nylon. They are typically dome-shaped, but vary, with rectangles, inverted domes, and others found

Drag; water.

Explanation:

Friction can be defined as a force that resists the relative motion of two objects when there surface comes in contact. Thus, it prevents two surface from easily sliding over or slipping across one another. Also, friction usually reduces the efficiency and mechanical advantage of machines but can be reduced through lubrication.

Generally, there are four (4) main types of friction and these includes;

I. Static friction.

II. Rolling friction.

III. Sliding friction.

IV. Fluid friction.

Fluid friction can be defined as a type of friction that acts on physical objects moving through a liquid or gas. A fluid refers to any physical substance that can flow and is able to take the shape of a container.

In science, matter can be defined as anything that has mass and occupies space. Any physical object that is found on earth is typically composed of matter. Matter are known to be made up of atoms and as a result has the property of existing in states.

Basically, matter exists in three (3) distinct or classical phases and these are; solid, liquid and gas.

Generally, friction applies to all states of matter; in the gaseous state, it is called drag resistance and in a liquid it's called water resistance.
