Hi
I think traction means اصطکاک and friction means برخورد، سایش and also اصطکاک.
Maybe they have the same meaning.
Saifollah Mollaei (asker) Mar 19, 2016:
Hi, What do you think is the difference between "traction" and "friction"?
And what terms do you suggest for each of them in Persian considering their definitions by Merriam-Webster's dictionary:

traction: the force that causes a moving thing to stick against the surface it is moving along

friction: the force that causes a moving object to slow down when it is touching another object
