Is friction good between a boat and the sea?
As far as the boat without any wheel arrangement is concerned, friction between boat surface and sea water is essential. Other wise moving boat cannot be brought to rest easily. Just to stop the boat we have to row in the opposite direction so heavily if friction is missing.
Is there fiction in liquid?
Yes! We know there is at least some friction in water. Like a boat in the water. As the boat moves along the water, the water is rubing against the boat, creating friction.
Five examples of surfaces that have very little friction between them?
There are several examples of surfaces that have little friction between them. They are water against a boat, crude oil in water, ball bearings, roller bearings, and graphite.
Why is it more difficult to stop a boat in water than a bus on the road?
Because there is less friction between the hull and the water than there is between the road surface and the tires.
Give an example of fluid friction?
A plane moving through air. Air is causing friction, A boat moving through water .Water causes friction.
When can friction not be useful in a boat?
the friction from pushing the hull through the water is not useful as long as you're travelling.
Why does a boat move backwards when a man steps out of the boat?
The force used when you step from a boat creates an equal reaction on the boat, which has very little friction with the water. If the boat were on the beach, friction with the sand would prevent it from moving very much.
Why is a boat moving through water considered sliding friction?
Because it's a boat...it slides haha
If I'm rowing a boat and there's no wind what type of friction is resisting me from moving?
Despite there being no apparent wind, there will still be a small amount of air friction. The main friction against the boat is from the water.
What energy changes take place when you use a boat?
Usually the water force friction takes place of the boat it pushes the gravitational force and the friction force takes place
Why is it more difficult to pull a boat on the sand than the sea?
It is so because the sand causes friction. So it slows down. Water in the sea has much less friction, that is why the boat just races along the water.
When you surf is there friction?
Yes, there is friction between the board and the water.
