Why sliding friction greater than rolling friction and if the area of contact is same?
The FORCE of Friction is INDEPENDENT of Surface Area. Only the 'Coefficient of Friction', and the Force between the two Surfaces. Sliding Friction is greater than Rolling Friction ONLY if the Coefficient of Friction is GREATER for the Sliding Surfaces.
What does a coefficient of friction of 1.0 or greater mean?
It means that the maximum force of friction is greater than the weight of the object.
Is the force needed to overcome kinetic friction greater than static friction?
No, it CAN'T be greater, and it is usually smaller.
Can gravity ever be greater than friction?
my dear gravity is forever greater than friction and strong atomic force is greater than gravity
What kind of friction generally produced the larger friction force?
Static friction produces a greater force than kinetic friction, given that all other conditions remain the same.

Who needs a bigger force to keep them moving a man or a child?
It depends. If you want to lift them up, you have to act a force equal to their weight, so a heavier person would need a force with greater magnitude. If you want to move them horizontally on a plane with friction the heavier person needs a force with greater magnitude again. On a plane without friction no force needs to be acting on them in order to move.
What does a coefficient of friction of 1.0 or greater mean?
It means that the maximum force of friction is greater than the weight of the object.
What is the relationship between mass and force of sliding friction?
they are directly proportional, the greater the mass, the greater the sliding friction
Is the force needed to overcome kinetic friction greater than static friction?
No, it CAN'T be greater, and it is usually smaller.
What does a force have to be than friction?
If you wish to actually move an object, some other force on the object has to be greater than the force of friction.
Is the force of friction greater between two children on a sled and the snow or between only one of the children on the same sled and the snow?
The force of friction is proportional to the force which surfaces press against each other. Since two people will cause the sled to push harder on the snow then one person, the friction will be greater for two people on the sled.
Can gravity ever be greater than friction?
my dear gravity is forever greater than friction and strong atomic force is greater than gravity
Is there a force that can go against friction?
No. Friction can only slow an object down. If friction were imparting a force greater than that of the applied forces, then friction in and of itself would actually be causing the object to move, which does not happen.
What kind of friction generally produced the larger friction force?
Static friction produces a greater force than kinetic friction, given that all other conditions remain the same.
Why does the input force have to be greater than the force needed to lift the bale?
Friction increases the effect of the input force
What is the friction that hinders a stationary object from moving on a surface when a force is applied to that object?
Static friction. The frictional force is greater then the force applied, meaning the object can't move.
