Yes Shapes changes the friction because it changes the surface area among other things. speed affects it is the sense that the object would come in more contact with the air and so the faster it goes the more friction

How does friction effects speed?

Friction will reduce an object's speed.


What factors affect the speed at which objects move through water?

volume shape density


Does speed affect the friction between a road and a skidding tire?

Speed does not affect the force of friction.


What factors do not contribute to friction?

My textbook says speed between two surfaces does not affect friction.


Can speed affect friction force?

Actually, friction does depend on velocity. If you stop your car you have to ease up on the brakes as you slow down because friction increases as you slow down. This effect has been observed for objects travelling at bullet velocities. Friction decrease as speed increases.


Is friction the speed of an object?

No, friction is the force between to objects created by gravity.


Friction will never speed up an object?

Yes, Friction will never speed up an object because friction slows objects down.


What does friction do to an objects motion?

slow it down, like you


What 3 factors affect the amount of air resistance on an object?

Speed, shape and frontal cross-section. Viscosity, texture, friction, gravity, velocity, size, and shape can all affect air resistance.


What 3 factors affect the amount of air resistance acting on an object?

How does gravity affect objects falling at the same time?

Two objects falling at the same time will fall with the same speed (assuming they both have similar shape and density)


What is the definition of dynamic friction?

Dynamic friction is a type of friction that is created when two objects are rubbing against one another. The amount of dynamic friction can change depending upon the speed of the two objects.
