In what way does friction always act?
And it not only DOES; it works in no other way. Friction is a sneaky thing. You know how a thermos "knows" to keep the hot stuff hot and the cold stuff cold? Well, friction always knows in which direction you're trying to go and pushes against you!
Which direction does friction work?
Friction's direction is always against the direction work is being applied to.
How does temperature affect the direction of heat movement .?
Heat always moves from the warmer object to the colder object.
The direction of kinetic friction is always?
against motion For example, if I push a box to the left, kinetic friction is going to the left.
How do we know that light does not need a medium in which to travel?
Because the speed of light is always constant; it doesn't change based on the movement of the source or detector or the direction in which it travels.
Friction can cause a force that pulls on it how?
Friction is always against the direction of the movement.

Which direction does friction always work?
Friction's direction is always against the direction work is being applied to.
What is the name of the force that always acts against the direction of movement?
In geneal frictional force. If it rubs against a surface then it is known to be friction. If it drags the moving body then it is said to be viscous drag.
Which direction does friction work?
Friction's direction is always against the direction work is being applied to.
In what direction is the force of friction exerted?
Friction acts in the opposite direction of the object's motion
The amount and direction of movement of water in plants can always be predicted by measuring WHAT?
water potential
What is the force that always acts opposite direction of movement and slows an object as it moves?
attrition
What is the direction of friction forces?
opposing the motion
Why is the jellyfish always tilted in the direction of movement?
Jellyfish are known as zooplankton, or animal drifters, as their means of propulsion cannot fight the ocean currents. The jelly fish move with the current and are viewed as tilted in the direction of movement.
How does temperature affect the direction of heat movement .?
Heat always moves from the warmer object to the colder object.
What is the direction of friction on the furnirure?
The direction of the friction force is always opposed to the movement. If I push my desk to the north, the friction force will be to the south - and if I don't push hard enough, it won't budge.
