What force keeps a person's feet from slipping on the sidewalk?
frictional force
What is the force a skateboard exerts on you if your mass is 60k and you push on the skateboard with a force of 60n?
When one object exerts a force on another object, the second object the same size force on the first object.
What force will stop a ball from rolling?
That force is called an Opposing Force.
The force that keeps you rom sliding on an icy sidewalk is?
static friction
What are the forces act on a skateboard?
There are several forces involved while riding a skateboard. The force of friction (air resistance and contact with ground) acting against the motion and the pushing force from when you push off with your foot acting with motion. There are also several normal reaction forces, the weight of the person on the skateboard and the weight of the skateboard on the ground.
How can a skateboard do what it does?
This is a mighty vague question, but I'll give it a shoot. A skateboard has wheels - when these wheels are acted upon by a force (such as you pushing it), they proceed to take the energy from that force and change it into centrifugal and centripetal forces- this causes the wheels on your skateboard to turn. Your skateboard won't roll indefinitely from 1 push because while your skateboard is rolling it is creating friction with the sidewalk you're skateboarding on. Friction is caused when 2 objects rub up against each other - this creates heat and a transfer of kinetic energy. Once all the kinetic energy has been transferred from your skateboard's wheels to the sidewalk, your skateboard come to a stop.
A boy on a skateboard pushes off the ground with his foot He and the skateboard accelerate down the sidewalk due to the force?
...he exerts against the ground
Suppose that you fall on a sidewalk while rollerblading Do you exert a force on the sidewalk Does the sidewalk exert a force on you Which of these forces may injure you?
Both, you exert a force onto the sidewalk, and the sidewalk "pushes back" with an equal, but opposite force.
What is the definition for rolling friction?
Wheels, ball bearings, the Egyptians building the pyramids using tree trunks to move the stones. An example of rolling friction would be like a skateboard rolling on a sidewalk. car running up a hill. someone pushing a wheel barol A bowling ball
What force slows a skateboard when a skateboard puts a foot down to brake?
gravity
Describe a common situation in which the net force on an object is zero but the object is not at rest?
Bowling ball rolling down the lane.

The dry sidewalk has more friction compared to the ice on the icy sidewalk
