Differentiate between force of gravity and force of friction?
F(gravity) pulls a movable object toward the center of mass (generally the Earth). F(friction) resists F(gravity) when the object is scraping against something that is solidly attached to the mass (Earth).
Is friction a type of gravity?
No, friction is not a type of gravity. Gravity is the force that attracts two objects toward each other, while friction is the force that resists motion when two surfaces are in contact with each other. Both are separate physical phenomena with different causes and effects.
Name the forces that keeps object attached to earth?
1. Gravity - it keeps objects from getting away from Earth into space. 2. Friction - in most places there's friction which keeps objects from sliding all over Earth.
What enables us to walk on earth?
The force of gravity enables us to walk on Earth by pulling us towards the ground. Gravity is the force of attraction between objects with mass, like us and the Earth. This force keeps us grounded and prevents us from floating off into space.
Which force is most responsible for raindrops falling to earth why are friction wind and thurst roungh?
Gravity is most responsible for raindrops falling to Earth. Friction, wind, and thrust can affect the movement of raindrops once they are falling, but gravity is the primary force pulling them downward.
What are examples of force?
- Gravity/weight - Air resistance/drag/friction - Centrapetal force
What is the difference between friction and gravity?
Friction is a force that opposes the relative motion of two surfaces in contact, while gravity is a force of attraction between masses. Friction acts parallel to the surfaces in contact, while gravity acts vertically downward towards the center of the Earth. Friction can be reduced by using lubricants or smoother surfaces, whereas gravity is a constant force that cannot be eliminated.
Is it true that the force of friction pulls the moon and earth toward each other?
No, friction is the resistance on a moving object that acts to slow it down, there is no friction in space. Gravity is the force that causes all bodies with mass to attract to each other, this includes the moon and earth. An example of this is the tides, the tides are effected by the pull of the gravity from the moon.
What are gravity and friction?
Gravity is a force that keeps us on the ground and friction is a force that either stops your feet from moving or doesn't do anything at all!
Why would friction affect gravity?
Gravitational acceleration is a constant value for a celestial body, and doesn't depend on air resistance/friction. The value on Earth is constant anywhere on Earth, just like the value on Mars is constant anywhere on Mars. In practical,however, this is different. Air resistance lowers the value of gravitational acceleration.
Does the force of gravity or the friction keep a bicycle on the ground?
The force of gravity keep a bycicle on the ground.
What force can move object?
Gravity and friction
