Why are lubricants used in machines? |
|
Answer» The lubricant spreads as a thin layer between the two surfaces. The motion now is between the surface and the lubricant layer. It changes the dry friction into wet friction. Since wet friction is less than dry friction, so we use lubricants in the machines to reduce the force of friction between the various parts of the machine. |
