Low friction is slippery high friction has good traction. In the sport of Curling (gliding those heavy granite stones on ice towards a bullseye) one shoe has low friction (to slide on the ice) the other has high friction (to propel the player).

What are some everyday situations where friction acts?

It's a shoe made by "Chinese Laundry". The style is called "Friction" and you can get them from Zappos.
How does friction affect stopping distance?
Some of the kinetic energy of a body in motion is used up in overcoming friction, which acts in the direction opposite to that of the motion. The reduction in energy means that the stopping force needs less time to do its work.
How do different ramps affect the movement of a toy car?
There are 2 ways that different ramps will alter the movement of a toy car. The material of the ramp will affect the friction (grip) of the car, if the friction is more ON THE WHEELS, it will go faster. If the air friction, or resistance is greater, it will go slower. Also, the height of the 'starting end' of the ramp will make the car go faster becase momentum buils up quicker, so the car will go faster. Hope this was helpfull!
What is the mathematical equation for friction?
An important formula is that friction = (coefficient of friction) x (normal force).
What fraction affect the friction force between two surface?
rubber shoes
Do shoes have a high or low friction?
Shoes have a higher amount of friction compared to other surfaces. If shoes did not have high friction, then people would be slipping and falling everywhere. I am sure shoe companies do not want this. But some shoes that do have low friction would be a dance shoe or bowling shoes, these are often slideing alot so they have lower amount of friction.
Do football cliques or shoes affect the throw of an football?
Yes,it helps and give off better friction to give the ball to the player.

Does snow increase friction between your shoes and the ground?
Snow decreases the friction between your shoes and ground. That's why cars slide in the winter.
Why do soles of shoes grooved?
to increase friction
