Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A lubricant reduces friction’s creation of thermal energy.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Applying lubricants to moving parts of machines reduces friction between them. This means that energy that is lost as heat due to friction is reduced.

Detailed explanation-2: -When lubricant is applied between the moving parts of a machine, a thin layer is formed there and moving surfaces do not directly rub against each other. Interlocking of irregularities is avoided to a great extent and movement becomes smooth. Thus friction is reduced.

Detailed explanation-3: -It has been shown that friction could both increase or decrease with lubrication, depending upon the nature of the application. In tests on straight sutures, lubricants have generally led to an increase in friction.

Detailed explanation-4: -This friction results in higher electrical power costs. Lubricants can reduce that friction. Therefore, when friction is reduced, less electricity is required to drive a gearbox, compressor, pump or other piece of equipment.

Detailed explanation-5: -A lubricant (sometimes shortened to lube) is a substance that helps to reduce friction between surfaces in mutual contact, which ultimately reduces the heat generated when the surfaces move. It may also have the function of transmitting forces, transporting foreign particles, or heating or cooling the surfaces.
