Why does weight affect frictional force?
Given an object if contact with a surface, the limiting frictional force is directly proportional to the normal reaction to the weight of the object at its point of contact with the surface.
Does then frictional force depend on the type of surfaces in contact?
Yes. Different materials and different surface structures affect the frictional force.
Does the frictional force depend on the area of surface contact?
No. Frictional force is independant of surface area.
How did the addition of more weight affect the friction?
When the weight increases the frictional force also increases:)
What are the 2 factors that affect the frictional force between 2 surface?
velocity and texture
How do different weights affect friction?
Friction is a resistance force imparted on an object sliding across a surface where the force is directly proportional to the WEIGHT of the object. The heavier the object that is moving across the surface the higher the frictional forces.
What are the two factors that determine frictional force?
two variables are : the surface type and the mass of the object. So the more mass an object has the less friction it has. The less mass an object has, the more fiction it has.
What are the two factors that affect the friction force between two?
normal force acting between them and surface roughness or frictional value that is mieu.
What factors affect the force of friction between sufaces?
The frictional force is described by F = μR where μ is the coefficient of friction (the roughness of the surface) and R is the force the object exerts perpendicular to the surface.
What are all factors affecting frictional force?
Mass, the bearing surface (how much weight on what surface area), and a "coefficient of friction", a measure of how rough or smooth the surface is.
What is the force that oppose motion between surface?
Frictional force
How frictional resistance along a fault affect the force released during an earthquake?
if the frictional resistance is high, the force will be greater, and if the frictional resistance is low, the force will be smaller.
