Baseball is a perfect example for the use of friction. There’s sliding friction which is a force that resists the motion of an object moving across a surface. Without any force acting, the sliding friction will make an object come to a halt. An example of sliding friction in baseball is while running, players can slide onto the plates. Another form of friction used in baseball is static friction which keeps an object at rest from moving. This is shown in baseball when the fielders are standing or waiting for the ball to be hit. During baseball, when the ball rolls down the field after a ground ball, it is called rolling friction. Rolling friction is the resistance to the sliding, rolling, or flowing of an object due to its contact with another
