The what two things determine the amount of momentum an object has?
Cabbage
What two things affect the amount of friction between two objects?
The coefficiant of friction between the two surfaces and the normal reaction force of the object lying on the surface
What two things can you do to increase friction on an object?
Increasing the weight of the object and the smoothness of the surface the object is on (the less smooth the more friction)
How does friction cause the motion of an object to change?
Friction slows things down
What would provide greater friction- carpet or lino?
carpet... the lino allows things to slide across it easily, creating minimal friction. the carpet has hairs which catch on things and generates a large amount of friction.

How does friction cause the motion of an object to change?
Friction slows things down
What is inertia and what determines how much i ntertia an object has?
the mass of the object determines the amount of inertia in an object
What 2 things determine the friction between to objects?
Friction between two objects depends on the static coefficient of friction (if the object is currently not moving) and the normal force from the surface, acting in the direction opposite the direction of gravity.
Why do carpets slow things down?
Because of the friction of the carpet. Friction: A force that opposes an object's motion.
How does an object move on a rough and on a smooth surface?
It is on smooth surfaces because the amount of friction is less.
Amount of friction depend on two thing?
The amount of friction between two surfaces depends on more than two things. It could depend on many things like The shared surafce area The amount of force between the objects How rough or somooth the surfaces are The presence of a lubricant or glue Ball bearings Even temperature. Many things affect the amount of friction between things
What is amount of matter in an object is called?
"Amount" is one of those rubber words that can mean different things to different people. The 'amount' of matter in an object could be the object's mass, or it could be the object's volume.
What would provide greater friction- carpet or lino?
carpet... the lino allows things to slide across it easily, creating minimal friction. the carpet has hairs which catch on things and generates a large amount of friction.
How does friction change the way things move?
Friction is a resistive force, and always acts in a direction opposite the motion of the object. Surface friction is caused by the sliding movement of one surface over another. Air friction is caused by air molecules sliding passed an object. In both cases, it works by transferring kinetic energy from the moving object to the atoms/molecules of whatever is causing the friction.
