There is no force opposite to friction. In fact, friction is not actually a force, although
we treat it as if it were one, in order to make the math and physics easier.
The concept of a force opposite to friction might be 'lubricity' ... the ability of two surfaces
to slide past each other.
The opposite force of friction depends on all the other forces applied to any moving object,
since those determine the object's motion, and friction always acts in the direction exactly
opposite to the object's motion.

What is the force between two moving objects that are touching?
Friction force. [opposite force]
What are the principles of friction?
there is nothing called as principle of friction. friction is just a force which will act in the opposite direction of which you apply force.
How it is friction related with work?
Work = Force x Distance Friction is a force usually operating in the opposite direction to the force being applied. Thus friction adds to the size of the force applied and work is increased.
Friction is a force that always acts?
Friction is a force that always acts opposite to sliding or rolling of one solid object over another.
Would friction make an object faster?
No, friction is a force which always acts in the direction opposite to that of motion.
How does the direction of friction compare with the dierection of the velcocity of a sliding object?
The "force" of friction is always exactly opposite the direction of motion.
What are principles of friction?
there is nothing called as principle of friction. friction is just a force which will act in the opposite direction of which you apply force.
What is the direction of the force of friction on wheel of bicycle?
the direction of force of friction provided from earth is in its opposite direction.i.e the wheel and frictional force are both opposite to each other
What is the force between two objects that are touching is?
Friction force. [opposite force]

What is the defition of friction?
friction is: When an object exerts an opposite force on an object in motion.
What is a force that is opposite to the dicrection of motion?
Friction often does that.
What is the force between two moving objects that are touching?
Friction force. [opposite force]
What are the principles of friction?

What friction force acts between a refrigerator and the floor when the fridge is pushed?
Friction opposes motion so the friction force will be in the direction opposite to that in which the fridge is pushed.
What is the force that opposes the friction force?
The opposite force to friction is momentum. Because friction stops an object from moving or slows an object down, momentum keeps it at speed.
What is the force that always acts opposite to the direction of the motion?
Friction
