That it limits movement - that it doesn't let you, or some device, move around quickly.

What is limiting force?

limiting force is basically just friction


Is static friction and limiting friction the same?

Limiting friction is the case of static friction where an object is right on the edge of moving, any more force applied to the object will cause it to move. Limiting friction is the largest value that the static friction can take


What factor does the limiting value of the force of the static friction depend?

limiting friction is force of friction when a body slides over the surface of another body


Is coefficient of friction or coefficient of limiting friction are same?

Limiting friction is just the maximum static friction force (if you go over that point static friction becomes kinetic friction).Let f = frictional force,c = coefficient of frictionN = Normal forcefmax = cN = limiting frictionAlthough the term coefficient of limiting friction is not really used, I'd assume it would just be "c" (it's a coefficient after all). So they would be the same.If you meant is coefficient of friction the same as limiting friction, than the answer is no. Coefficient of friction is just the "c" in the equation. Limiting friction however is the product of the coefficient and the normal force.


What is limiting value of friction?

The maximum friction that can be generated between two static surfaces in contact with each other. Once a force applied to the two surfaces exceeds the limiting friction, motion will occur. For two dry surfaces, the limiting friction is a product of the normal reaction force and the coefficient of limiting friction.


What is the effect of force on friction?

The force acting on an object increases the friction between the object and the surface it is on. As the force increases, the friction force also increases proportionally until it reaches a maximum value, called the limiting friction. This relationship is described by the equation: friction force = coefficient of friction * normal force.


What are the examples of limiting friction?

If limiting friction is the same as static friction, then I have an answer, because static friction means that the objects in contact do not move. For example, if you place a box on the table, it does not move, as there is static friction between the box and the table.


What is it called when friction stops something from moving?

The frictional force needed to just stop something from moving is called limiting friction, and the object is said to be in limiting equilibrium.


State laws of limiting friction?

1. the direction of force of friction is always opposite to the direction of motion.. 2. the magnitude of limiting friction depends upon the nature and state of polish of the two surfaces in contact and acts tangentially to the interface between them.. 3. the magnitude of limiting friction 'F' is directly proportional to normal reaction 'R' between the two surfaces in contact.. 4. the magnitude of limiting friction is independent of area and shape of surfaces in contact as long as the normal reaction remains the same..


What are the factors on which limiting friction depends?

Limiting friction depends on factors such as the nature of the surfaces in contact, the applied force pressing the surfaces together, and the presence of any lubricants between the surfaces. The roughness of the surfaces, the temperature, and the contact area also influence limiting friction.


How are fricition and force related?

Friction is a force and is the result of any force acting on a object. It is usually associated with two sliding objects or an object sliding across a plane. When a force is exerted on an object an opposing force is created by friction. The opposing force is equal to the exerted force until the exerted force exceeds the limiting friction. The limiting friction is determined by the coefficient of friction between the two surfaces and the "weight" of the object. To put it another way, imagine pushing a sheet of sandpaper across a rubber mat, which would have a high coefficient of friction. The weight of the sandpaper is minimal so the limiting friction is rather small. Now put a 5kg weight on the sandpaper and it becomes much more difficult to get the sandpaper to slide. Max friction = μ.N μ = coefficient of friction N = Normal force("weight")


Explain the term dynamic limiting friction and rolling friction?

Dynamic limiting friction refers to the maximum amount of frictional force that can be generated between two surfaces in relative motion. Rolling friction is the resistive force that opposes the motion of a rolling object, which is typically smaller than sliding friction due to the rolling motion.
