No, vectors are a measurement of speed in a specified direction. They can be represented by lines and arrows on paper, or as as numbers as in, "63mph at 127 degrees north azimuth."

Is an object at rest has friction?
An object can be at rest with or without friction. An object floating in outer space can be at rest. An object that is glued to the floor can also be at rest.
What friction prevents an object from moving when a force is applied?
The friction produced that stops an object moving when force is applied is 'static friction'.
What type of friction is the frictional force needed to start on object at rest into motion?
Static
When a body slides over a surface the kinetic friction and static friction related as?
Kinetic friction is the friction that applies when an object is moving; static friction is the friction that applies when the object is not moving. Static friction must always be greater than, or equal to, kinetic friction.
How the direction of the force of kinetic friction is related to the direction of an object's motion?
Friction force works against the motion of the object. In other words friction force has the opponent direction of the velocity of the object.
Can friction make object yes or no?
Friction can make object no.
What unit do you measure friction in?
you measure friction in Newtons
As soon as an object starts moving what replaces static friction?
Kinetic Friction replaces Static Friction when an object is in motion.
Is an object at rest has friction?
An object can be at rest with or without friction. An object floating in outer space can be at rest. An object that is glued to the floor can also be at rest.
What does friction do to the object's motion?
The motion of the object might slow down or just change itself object would resist moving or keep moving. An object can have static friction, sliding friction, or rolling friction.
Does friction affects the weight of an object?
no, friction just changes the motion of an object.
What is the defition of friction?
friction is: When an object exerts an opposite force on an object in motion.
What unit of measure is used to measure friction?
The coefficient of friction is dimensionless.
What is the difference between sliding and rolling and kinetic and static friction?
Sliding friction is the friction between the body and the surface on which the body is sliding. Static friction however, is the friction when the body isn't moving when you aply force to it. The force of static friction is the same as the force you are pushing the body UNTIL it moves!..It's a fact that the static friction coefficient is a bit bigger than the sliding friction coefficient.
Does friction speed up an object?
Friction does not speed up an object; it creates drag and slows it down.
What is gravity and friction and weight?
Gravity is force that pulls you down. Weight is the measure of yhe force of gravity on an objct Friction: anytime two object rubs agains each other
When can you notice friction?
i notice friction when a moving object is being stopped by a living object
