∙ 14y agoThe Force of Friction is exerted in a direction diametrically opposed to the direction of movement. Generically, if an object is moved "left" the effective friction force is to the "right".

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.
What is a rolling friction?
It is the force of friction exerted on an object which is rolling on the floor ;Example:wheels. It is less than the other types of friction.
How does the direction of friction compare to the direct motion?
The direction of the force of friction is opposite of the direction of the motion.
What are the forces in net force?
Any time an object's velocity changes (the object "accelerates"), that is due to a net force. Here are some examples: * A car speeds up. The force is exerted by the tires, on the road. * A car slows down. The force is exerted by the tires, on the road, or by air resistance. * A car moves in a curve (its velocity changes too, since it changes direction). The force is exerted by the tires, on the road. * A planet moves around the Sun. The velocity changes all the time, since the direction changes. The force is exerted by gravity. * A falling object speeds up. The force is exerted by gravity.
How does the direction of the force of kinetic friction is related to the direction of of an objects motion?
Friction always acts opposite to the direction of motion.
If a force is exerted to the left what direction will the reaction force be exerted?
right
Which way is friction exerted?
Friction exerts a force opposite the direction of the object's motion. For example, if you were pushing an object to the right (looking from a side view) the friction would be facing left.
What is the direction of the forces is the?
Is the direction where you exerted your force.
What is the meaning of drag?
Drag is something that is force exerted. It is a force that is exerted in the opposite direction of movement.
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.
How does the direction of friction compare with the dierection of the velcocity of a sliding object?
The "force" of friction is always exactly opposite the direction of motion.
Which friction force is exerted by the fluids?
Viscous force. This is the frictional force between layers in relative motion
Is friction in same direction of force?
This question is ambiguous. It depends on what force you are comparing the friction force with. Friction, itself, is a force, which will be directed in a direction OPPOSITE the sliding or attempted sliding of two surfaces.
What is a rolling friction?
It is the force of friction exerted on an object which is rolling on the floor ;Example:wheels. It is less than the other types of friction.
How does the direction of friction compare to the direct motion?
The direction of the force of friction is opposite of the direction of the motion.
How many forces make up the net force?
However many there are exerted on the object. Usually there is gravity, friction, and another force exerted on the object.
Is friction a contact or non contact force?
friction is a contact force
